Enventure Global Technology is working to convince operators that its solid expandable steel liners perform better than chemical diverter agents for refracturing operations. Its technology is called the ESeal ReFrac Liner.

The United States is in the midst of a once-in-a-generation energy opportunity. The advent of hydraulic fracturing has launched a new era of energy abundance—a stark contrast to the decades of growing domestic energy scarcity that preceded it.

The pursuit of sweet spots in unconventional oil and gas plays is driving the creation of an emerging set of data-driven systems to measure, map, and predict how wells will perform in unconventional reservoirs.

The Bakken Petroleum System, which includes the Bakken and Three Forks shales in North America, is estimated to hold as much as 900 billion bbl of original oil in place.

Nathan Meehan is senior executive adviser at Baker Hughes, where he advises executive management on reservoir and geoscience issues.

At the recent 2015 Unconventional Resources Technology Conference, a major theme was how companies can improve performance without increasing the size of their budget.

Professionals in the oil and gas industry often receive questions about how industry operations affect public health, the environment, and the communities in which they operate. Of particular concern today is the impact of hydraulic fracturing on the environment.

The challenges facing the oil and gas industry require crossover technologies from other industries such as aerospace, automotive, and medicine to help drive efficiency, boost productivity, and optimize performance.

Two things show the importance of the UAE and Abu Dhabi to Total. The first is our footprint: We are the largest international oil company (IOC) in Abu Dhabi involved across the whole energy value chain—from upstream through midstream to downstream.

The label unconventional oil and gas stubbornly hangs on because these formations cannot be understood using the rules of conventional petroleum engineering.
