The lower tertiary formation found in the pre-salt layers of the Gulf of Mexico has become a proving ground for extending what is possible when completing multistage fracturing in ultradeepwater wells.

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.

For openhole horizontal wells, providing power and data through an umbilical is very challenging.

The paper describes the hardware and user interface, the procedures for installation and acquisition, and several examples of field data and well-performance analysis for a variety of rod-pumping installations.

With more than a decade of experience acquired using Venturi/gamma ray multiphase flowmeters (MPFMs), further gains in measurement quality and operational robustness have been achieved.
