Digital Resource Solutions

The DRS Focus: Accuracy, Specialization, and Reliability

Corporate Profile:
Digital Resource Solutions Inc. (DRS) is a privately owned Canadian consulting company founded in 2004 by Michael Shepley, P. Geol.  Based in Calgary, Alberta, DRS is leading the field in digital core processing with professional analysis of geological core hole data.

DRS creates very high resolution reservoir phase quantifications which can be integrated into characterization and modeling tools.  Proprietary software allows DRS to seamlessly integrate laboratory, wireline, petrophysical, and core hole data to provide your team with enhanced reservoir knowledge for exploration and production.

The DRS Approach:
DRS offers a comprehensive interpretation unique to every project.  Since 2004, trusting relationships have been established with Alberta’s energy and oil sands operators; the company has processed over five thousand oil sands wells for more than twenty companies in North America.

With experience and innovation, DRS has built a reputation of delivering high quality, fundamental modeling inputs for unconventional plays. Recently, the company has expanded into analysis of fluorescent hydrocarbon photography, helping clients review tight gas and thinly bedded oil reserves.

The DRS Advantage:
Our software enables high resolution interpretations and depth corrections to occur efficiently and reliably. Our process can work directly with a client, or be applied to a collective exploration program. Integrating and standardizing laboratory data allows existing datasets to be combined with more recent interpretations, creating practical, accessible imports for geological and petrophysical modeling.

DRS consulting also plays an instrumental role in annual drilling programs and in standardizing large scale databases. Our business has been built by responding to clients’ challenges and creating innovative solutions to complex problems.  We welcome the opportunity to face new challenges and work with companies to create better solutions.

The DRS Difference:
At DRS, we believe no analysis should ever be completely ‘routine’. Stratigraphy in the Canadian oil sands is a complex puzzle due to the fluvial / estuarine nature of its formation. Examining your drilling or historical program’s specific requirements, we can offer specialized interpretations that meet geo-modelers’ parameters.

The interpretation process at DRS is both comprehensive and strategic, working within an efficient, logical plan to ensure rapid delivery of your results. The process opens up time for your team to analyze and evaluate, ensuring you have not only the best inputs, but the best model to maximize production.
