Few things are more essential to the now global hydraulic fracturing revolution than access to fresh water, yet this dependency use has raised environmental concerns and operational challenges.

This paper presents a comprehensive model of geothermal exploitation for depleted deep heavy oil reservoirs through supercritical CO₂ injection.

Geothermal systems, which rely on extracting heat from deep within the Earth, face many of the same technical challenges that oil and gas operators have tackled for decades. Geothermal development can be advanced efficiently and economically by applying proven oil and gas technologies.

Updates about global exploration and production activities and developments.

SPE technical papers synopsized in each monthly issue of JPT are available for download for SPE members for 2 months. These February and March papers are available now.

The path forward is not just about automation—it is about augmentation. AI is not replacing human expertise; it is amplifying it. Those who master this balance will define the future of oil and gas in a rapidly evolving energy landscape.

This study highlights how the recovery and reuse of existing hydrocarbon infrastructure can contribute to the diffusion of district-heating projects that implement the principles of the circular economy.

Field examples of operators using chemical restimulation to boost production in aging unconventional wells as an alternative to acid treatments.

Two new studies from completions experts suggest the global upstream industry has a major opportunity in medium-quality reservoirs.
