International agreements and national policies on environmental sustainability are changing the outlook for enhanced oil recovery globally. These changes are highlighted by both monetary and intellectual commitments by oil companies around the world.

This paper aims to close some of the many knowledge gaps that exist in the field of drilling CO₂ storage wells, a task that is expected to involve handling an influx of CO₂ into the drilling fluid.

This year’s primary selections for the Drilling and Completion Fluids Technology Focus reflect now-well-established industrywide emphases on machine learning, automation, and the achievement of successful drilling of CO₂ storage wells.

This paper describes a polymer-injection pilot in the Chichimene heavy oil field in Colombia.

The road to a low-carbon world is paved with more than just shiny new facilities and the promise to deliver impressive CO₂ reductions from the atmosphere. Without the software to site, monitor, and maintain those facilities, the drive for net zero would be stuck in neutral.

SPE technical papers synopsized in each monthly issue of JPT are available for download for SPE members for 2 months. These October and November papers are available now.

This paper reports the observation of stealth asphaltenes, a potential flow-assurance issue, by means of experimental analysis.

There is no shortage of quantum technology applications in the upstream industry, from supply chain to well placement, making now the time to take it seriously.

This year’s Flow Assurance Technology Focus provides a trio of papers concerning the use of advanced techniques in detection, mitigation, and risk calculation
