Capitalizing on technology that originated with NASA delivers savings on directional drilling operations.

A pilot application using computer vision technology has been created to count and measure the pipe entering the wellbore and detect personnel movement in the red zone during pipe-delivery operations.

Seven years, and we’re on track to exceed the 1.5°C target established by the Paris Agreement in 2015 to limit global warming by 2030. Instead, we may be turning up the heat to 3.0°C. And in this case, doubling the wager does not hold potential for greater rewards. A recent report addressed the costs of technologies for emissions mitigation and their likelihood of mak…

The authors seek to eliminate the need for pressure testing in the evaluation of annular creep barriers by qualifying the barrier using only cased-hole log measurements.

This paper discusses the results of extensive laboratory tests used for the customization of a reservoir drill-in fluid and a delayed breaker—and their field performance—for two deepwater gas-injector wells.

African nation becoming the latest global hotspot for giant oil finds.

In the October 2021 issue of JPT, incoming SPE President Kamel Ben-Naceur discussed the importance of collaboration in solving technical problems quickly and efficiently. Three of the papers selected in this section are from collaborations between multiple companies pooling their expertise and resources to develop solutions for complex problems that could not be addre…

A team of engineers did something no one had done before: a full-scale fracturing test on the surface. The results surprised the fracturing experts involved.

This paper presents a screenout-classification system based on Gaussian hidden Markov models that predicts screenouts and provides early warning.

This paper discusses the results of driller stress tests and the implementation of a system that assists the operator in kick detection, space out, and preparation for well shut-in.
