This paper presents a case history of a North Sea well in which managed-pressure drilling (MPD) was used as the enabling technology to drill, case, and cement the well.

This paper discusses the factors to be taken into account when designing cement jobs using fluids in turbulent flow and some of the overlooked benefits of using turbulent-flow design for mud removal.

This paper describes the first application of the 10¾-in. CV in a deep-well sour environment.

The most common method used for the placement of cement plugs is the balanced-plug method using drillpipe, tubing, or a combination of both.

Many good well-construction-technology papers came out last year, as well as a couple on older technologies that either had not been published earlier or had been released and were underappreciated.

This paper presents the results of a performance-improvement effort in extended-reach drilling (ERD) in three campaigns in the Huizhou HZ 25-4 oil field in the South China Sea.

During OTC in Houston last month, offshore construction capabilities drew a room-capacity audience to a technical session about advances in deepwater construction techniques and vessels, including pipelaying and heavy lifting.

The SPE Board of Directors has approved the publication of its first technical report, titled “The Human Factor: Process Safety and Culture,” intended to provide guidance on the identification and mitigation of risks associated with human factors in upstream E&P operations.

Georgeann Bilich joined the SPE staff in 1974 as the preprint coordinator. She retired on 27 March 2014 as SPE vice president–-communications, directing all SPE print and electronic publications, as well as external and internal communications, public relations, and energy education. During this 40-year time–span, Bilich at one time or another worked within or managed…

Linhua4-1 was China’s first tieback subsea development project. To develop this marginal oil field, a number of technical challenges were overcome through a series of new technologies, and their successful development and implementation.
