A long-time energy industry executive and chemical engineer has built a new water treatment system that he says can increase recovery rates from shale wells without using chemicals and will recycle all the water used in the process.

As the drilling industry improves its efforts to capture drilling operation activities in real time, it has generated a significant amount of data that drilling engineers cannot process on their own.

This paper shows how automation reduces invisible lost time and allows drillers to focus on other activities while repetitive tasks are controlled by software.

To accelerate learning, an operator deployed a real-time, closed-loop downhole automation system (DHAS) in conjunction with wired drillpipe in the 8¾-in.-hole section.

This paper presents the LCDSS and elaborates on the use of it in the preparation and training phase and the operational phase, including forecasting.

Douglas Westwoods' world FLNG market forecast for the period 2016-2022. A stormy ride is expected for the LNG industry, as the fall in natural gas prices limits investment in capital-intensive liquefaction projects.

Kenneth George Nolte, SPE, died 6 July 2016. He was 74 years old. He was recognized as a legend of hydraulic fracturing and was most known for his contribution to the Nolte-Smith Plot, which revolutionized the interpretation of net-pressure behavior during and after hydraulic fracture treatments. Nolte’s work in his earlier years also made a significant contribution t…

In the Eagle Ford, an integrated approach to engineering and operations was key to optimize performance and improve understanding of the area.

This paper presents a state-of-the-art review of scale-inhibitor-analysis techniques and describes how these techniques can be used to provide cost-effective scale management.

This paper describes a novel method of chemical dosage based on time-resolved fluorescence (TRF) that allows a simple, accurate, and efficient quantification of chemicals below parts-per-million ranges, even for double (scale/scale, scale/corrosion) quantification.
