SPE’s professional membership has an important role to play in mitigating climate change concerns and in developing new low- or no-carbon sources of energy. We offer a forum for presenting and disseminating scientifically vetted technical information about what can be and is being done by our members.

A decade ago, SPE defined key R&D and technology challenges for the industry. To address the more uncertain environment of the 2020s and beyond, we have updated the grand challenges via a January 2023 SPE workshop.

The objective of this study was to establish an efficient optimization work flow to improve vertical and areal sweep in a sour-gas injection operation, thereby maximizing recovery under operation constraints.

The objective of this paper is to present a fundamentals-based model of three-phase flow consistent with observation that avoids the pitfalls of conventional models such as Stone II or Baker’s three-phase permeability models.

Recent developments from Equinor and Murphy Oil Corp. offer hope that the industry is zeroing in the right approach to building megaprojects.

Benriach well finds subeconomic natural gas accumulation.

Well and sidetrack encountered pay in the targeted Santonian interval.

Challenges including increases in UK taxation have prompted operator Parkmead Group to drop plans to develop its Greater Perth project in the North Sea.

Follow-up sidetrack tested up to 5,000 B/D of oil.

CNPC’s record-breaking 11,100-m exploration borehole in the Taklamakan Desert promises to unlock the science of producing oil and gas trapped in the world’s deepest reservoirs.
