The offshore application of blended, or simultaneous-source, seismic acquisition has been comparatively limited.

Hybrid steam/solvent processes have gained importance as a thermal-recovery process for heavy oils in recent years.

An appraisal program involving the Bentley field located on the UK continental shelf has addressed the key technical concerns associated with developing viscous crude in an offshore environment.

An even temperature conformance along the length of the horizontal well is key in maximizing steam-assisted-gravity-drainage (SAGD) production rates.

Implementation of channel fracturing enhanced by rod-shaped proppant brings substantial value for depleted Devonian formations in the Orenburg region of Russia.

This paper provides new approaches to fracture design for thick, vertically anisotropic reservoirs, when considerable uncertainty in reservoir parameters amplifies the financial risks associated with water depth and remoteness.

With the decline in oil price and typical product differentials, the current year will be particularly challenging for heavy-oil operations.

The coming year will be challenging for the global geophysical industry and for seismic-acquisition companies in particular.

Technology is improving continuously to help us with production optimization through new approaches, including downhole multiphase-flow measurement, wireless data gathering, wireless power-transfer methods, and new fluids technology.

Among the tools and techniques being used to exploit hydrocarbons efficiently are real-time geomechanics.
