The HAWK Fiber System from Hawk Measurement Systems provides predictive analysis that allows operators to make informed decisions about pipeline assets. The system monitors cable condition; stress, strain, and pressures on the pipe; ground movement; unusual noise emanating from either the pipe or the surrounding environment; and parameters such as moisture for sensors…

HSE Now curates content about health, safety, security, environment, social responsibility, regulations, and sustainability from SPE and other publications. HSE Now is a great way to stay current with developments in these areas relevant to the oil and gas industry. Sign up for …

This paper shows results from use of a new technology that uses in-well-conveyed fiber-optic distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) for the detection of sand-ingress zones across the reservoir section throughout the production period in real time.

This paper summarizes a technology using SMP to provide downhole sand control in openhole environments.

Unlike continuous gas injection and water-alternating-gas injection, gas-assisted gravity drainage (GAGD) takes advantage of the natural segregation of reservoir fluids to provide gravity-stable oil displacement.

This paper presents a method to compare the distribution of hypothesized and realized risks to oil wells described in two data sets that contain free-text descriptions of risks.

Production from sand-prone reservoirs is one of the more daunting tasks, with formidable challenges. Sand management and control remain as an old problem but with new challenges because of the suppressed oil and gas prices. Cost-saving and value-adding solutions are vital now more than ever.
