A recently opened plant in Wharton marks the first small-scale commercial gas-to-liquids project in the state of Texas.

Current conditions have made most companies decide to optimize performance of their existing assets, and EOR is a key part of that.

I would like to steer readers’ attention to new technology, advanced modeling, and the interesting topic of fracture hits.

One of the more important aspects of well integrity during drilling operations is early kick detection. Recently, new technologies and re-search have been applied or developed to improve the kick-detection systems and to overcome some of the difficulties.

Our industry is governed by rules that require cleanup and closure of oil and gas facilities after they cease to produce. Unlike a capital project, decommissioning is not something that you can choose to do or not to do.

Following my theme for the year on Risk and Reward, let’s think about how disruptive technologies alter the risk/reward balance.

The North American shale sector has always relied on brute force to get the job done in the subsurface. However, these days hydraulic fracturing involves more science, engineering, and finesse than ever.
