The world’s first offshore gas-hydrate production was carried out successfully in deepwater Japan at Nankai trough in 2013.

University Geological parameters within reservoir models define the geometry of the reservoir and the distribution of reservoir properties such as porosity and permeability.

Understanding well and reservoir performance is the ultimate goal of data gathering.

The growth in unconventionals production and the spotlight on hydraulic fracturing have heightened public concern about oil and gas industry operations and raised the stakes for those working in the industry.

In some operating areas, the change in ambient temperature from day to night can exceed 50°F. This cyclic temperature change can cause false pressure responses in low-quality pressure gauges and significant pressure responses in the wellbore.

As capability development is one of its key strategic objectives, SPE sponsored a forum in August 2013 on the need to ensure an appropriately educated upstream engineering workforce in 2020 and beyond.

Demand for a better way to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from natural gas led to the creation of a new material at Rice University in Houston that does something unprecedented on the molecular scale, and might even change gas processing.

The subsea market is one of the fastest-growing sectors of the international oil and gas industry, involving the development and deployment of some of the most advanced technology ever created in increasingly inhospitable environments.

A sharp rise in seismic events in some areas of the United States where oil and gas production is booming is leading regulators and the industry to examine whether the two are related.

Jim Moffat, chief executive officer of UAE-based oil and gas construction and engineering group Lamprell, says offshore drilling rig construction in the Middle East is booming.
