This paper discusses the use of clamp-on sonar flowmeters to minimize losses associated with well testing and to gain the subsequent benefits seen with respect to production optimization and well deliquefication.

Queensland, Australia, is currently host to a number of coal-seam-gas (CSG) to liquefied-natural-gas (LNG) projects under development.

Surface jet pumps (SJPs) are simple, low-cost, passive devices that use a high-pressure (HP) fluid as the motive force to boost the pressure of produced-gas and -liquid phases.

Drilling long horizontal wellbores and completing wells with multistage fracturing are common practices in shale-play development.

Eleven reviewers joined the elite ranks of A Peer Apart by reviewing more than 100 papers for SPE, and 3 technical editors are recognized for their efforts during 2014.

Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) has been used to make high-density drilling muds. However, when drilling 5⅞-in. hole, sticking occurs because of the high concentration of CaCO3 required.

SPE’s New Delhi Section (SPENDsec) sponsored a field trip recently to Block RJ-ON-90/1 in the Barmer basin area in Rajasthan, India. The total area of Block RJ-ON-90/1 is approximately 3,111 km2. It covers parts of the Baitu, Barmer, and Gudamalani areas in the Barmer district and Sanchor and Bagoda in the Jalor district. This onshore block in the northwest of the cou…
