The philosophy of Project STARR is to work with State Lands operators to
- Deploy advanced recovery strategies and newly developed technologies on a field-by-field basis to ensure maximum recovery efficiency
- Encourage exploration in under-developed areas or new plays
- To exploit unconventional hydrocarbon resources.
The most volumetrically significant State Lands oil and gas resources are in the Gulf Coast and the Permian Basin (see figure – LINK TO STATE LANDS MAP). Project STARR’s approach is to concentrate on these two mature resource areas, where innovative and cost-effective strategies can best be deployed to stem the production decline.
