As cutting-edge technologies unlock geothermal potential, Japan is channeling investments into powerhouse projects across the US, Indonesia, and New Zealand and priming its own reserves for a clean energy boom at home.

What do today’s membership trends mean for SPE? While declining numbers and an aging demographic can be unsettling, the reality is that these challenges are not unique to SPE. As professional associations everywhere face generational shifts, SPE members have an opportunity to hear about the success stories ongoing now and reflect on what will sustain our community in …

As the industry accelerates carbon capture, use, and storage initiatives, modeling innovations for carbon-dioxide injection and enhanced oil recovery have become critical for optimizing recovery and ensuring secure storage. Recent studies highlight a shift toward data-driven and hybrid approaches that combine computational efficiency with operational practicality.

Two critical facets of the discipline of well control and wellbore integrity—decarbonization and groundbreaking automation of essential processes—are highlighted in the three primary paper selections presented at SPE and SPE-affiliated conferences during the past year.

This section lists with regret SPE members who recently passed away.

SPE technical papers synopsized in each monthly issue of JPT are available for download for SPE members for 2 months.
