This year’s Flow Assurance Technology Focus provides a trio of papers concerning the use of advanced techniques in detection, mitigation, and risk calculation

This paper describes a polymer-injection pilot in the Chichimene heavy oil field in Colombia.

This study investigates hydrate formation in a water-alternating-gas injection well under water-to-gas and gas-to-water changeover operations.

This paper describes the suite of cloud-based digital twin tools that the operator has developed and is integrating into its operations, providing online, real-time calculation of scale risk and deployed barrier health to manage risk on a well-by-well basis.

The road to a low-carbon world is paved with more than just shiny new facilities and the promise to deliver impressive CO₂ reductions from the atmosphere. Without the software to site, monitor, and maintain those facilities, the drive for net zero would be stuck in neutral.

The birthplace of Royal Dutch Shell, Indonesia and Malaysia, buck trends and grow their gas and oil industries, expecting a record number of final investment decisions in the next 4 years in gas, deep water, and carbon capture projects to support Southeast Asia’s booming economic growth.

SPE technical papers synopsized in each monthly issue of JPT are available for download for SPE members for 2 months. These October and November papers are available now.

We reflect on the legacy and commitment made by a key member of the JPT team who is stepping down from his role of more than a decade and into retirement.

Undergraduate education in petroleum engineering has survived the latest downturn in the industry, and enrollment has started to show an uptick in numbers. However, a different trend is evident in graduate training and academic research: the number of researchers being trained in oil and gas topics is drastically dropping.

There is no shortage of quantum technology applications in the upstream industry, from supply chain to well placement, making now the time to take it seriously.
