Hydraulic fracturing has drawn intense interest inside and outside the industry, but far less attention has been given to what will happen in the decades of production to come.
-
Petrobras executives outlined major advancements in production that the company has made since first discovering pre-salt reservoirs and the subsea technologies it will use to develop them further.
-
The frontiers of deepwater and pre-salt reservoirs garnered much attention at the 2013 SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition (ATCE) held in New Orleans in October. -
As with many monitoring and decision support tools, riser management systems originate from the engineering community so may assume a large degree of domain knowledge.
-
Matrix body bits are known for longevity and reliability in challenging formations such as granite, chert, and abrasive sandstones and conglomerates.
-
A highly efficient and popular technique for multistage fracturing involves placing a completion string in the open hole with a series of ball-actuated stages isolated by hydraulically set or swellable packers.
-
Safety and efficiency have long been the drivers in the evolution of tubular handling and running technology, from manual systems to highly mechanized and automated processes.
-
SPE recently sponsored a forum on the need to ensure an appropriately educated upstream engineering workforce in 2020 and beyond.
-
In this first article on technological frontiers, I will focus on the ways in which modern knowledge-transfer avenues are impacting the industry and, more specifically, SPE.
-
Every year, JPT surveys SPE members to determine whether the publication is fulfilling its readers’ needs and to get opinions about ways to make the magazine better.
