Laboratory formation damage testing is often used to help select optimal drilling and completion fluids, but predicting the overall effect of formation damage on well performance requires further interpretation. Paper SPE 199268 presents a case for use of CFD to upscale laboratory data to quantify that effect.

Will the oil fields of today become the hydrogen fields of tomorrow? Calgary-based Proton Technologies says this is possible and hopes to prove it soon after inking multiple licensing deals with other oil and gas companies.

The drilling program is the first exploration well to be drilled in production license 785 S.

The find kicks off Petrobras’ latest drilling campaign, which is focused primarily on offshore blocks holding subsalt potential that the company acquired at a series of bid rounds that started in 2017.

Artificial lift really shines during a downturn. This is because, when capital spending is constrained, artificial lift is one of the few levers an operator has available to increase production while reducing operating expenses.

The qualification and first deployment of a low-solids, oil-based completion fluid that incorporates a newly developed, high-density brine as the internal phase to extend the density limit is discussed.

Emerging three-axis microgravity technology has the potential to provide reservoir information not obtainable from other forms of data acquisition

The Gulf of Mexico discovery, a product of infrastructure-led exploration, boasts 100 million bbl of gross potential.

An artificial-lift concept consisting of an in-well ESP as the primary method and a mudline system as backup has proved effective in an unltradeepwater heavy-oil field.

Laboratory studies performed for evaluation of filter cake breaker fluid exposed limitations with a conventional test approach.
