Downhole instrumentation of the Khazzan tight gas appraisal wells provides a rare opportunity to quantify reservoir pressure and temperature dynamics.

To achieve optimal production from unconventional reservoirs, it is useful to determine the permeability, pore pressure, and state of stress of rock strata.

Energized fluids—with the success of hydraulic fracturing in the US shale-gas plays, why are more operating companies not using energized fluids to minimize the use of water, decrease the amount of proppant required, and (theoretically) enhance long-term productivity?

This paper offers an analytical model for estimating the transient temperature at a given depth and timestep, for computing the BHP.

It is inspiring to look back to 1909 when Howard Hughes Sr. and Walter Sharp introduced the roller-cone bit.

Approximately one-half of all offshore conventional oil and gas resources are known or thought to be undrillable with conventional, open-to-atmosphere circulating fluids systems for safety, economic, and/or technical reasons.

SPE is unique by design. It is global, it is not-for-profit, it exists for the benefit of its large and diverse membership of 143,000 and the technical content of SPE’s programs is developed by its members.

One question raised about the sharp slide in global crude oil prices is whether this is just another cycle in a volatile business that has certainly seen its share of ups and downs, or a more significant shift in the relationship between producers, namely OPEC, and consuming countries.

Add a new possible use for downhole casing: It can serve as broadcast antennae.

North America is expected be a net exporter of both oil and natural gas by 2020, according to ExxonMobil’s “Outlook for Energy: A View to 2040” report, which was released in December.
