An SPE workshop titled “Application of the SPE Petroleum Resources Management System (Unconventional Re­sources),” was held 14 November, the day after the 2013 SPE Unconventional Resources Conference and Exhibition–Asia Pacific in Brisbane, Australia.

For companies working to maximize production and profits, one of the biggest questions has been, and continues to be, how manyu wells to drill per square mile.

Youssif Saleh, general manager of Qatar Shell Research and Technology Centre in the Qatar Science and Technology Park, discusses the R&D strategy of the center and Qatar.

Optimum exploitation of unconventional hydrocarbons will rely almost as much on innovative business models as on technology breakthroughs.

Nathan Meehan is the nominee for 2016 SPE president. He and nine others make up the slate of nominees recommended for positions open on the SPE Board of Directors.

While shale unproved technically recoverable resources have been identified around the world, development has been limited to North America.

Despite a short 18-month planning time and very limited geological data, the TTD-1 high-pressure/high-temperature (HP/HT) exploration well in East Malaysia’s Block SK was drilled successfully.

This paper gives an overview of the latest developments in how advanced finite-element-analysis (FEA) tools are used to verify, optimize, and validate ultra-HP/HT completion and production tools.

As the industry significantly increases the number of work fronts in both the established and the new deepwater frontiers, ever-more-innovative approaches are being developed to address the challenges faced.

High-pressure/high-temperature (HP/HT) challenges are being addressed in a variety of locations around the world. These include the very challenging HP/HT wells in Malaysia, the Middle East, the Mediterranean, the South China Sea, the US Gulf Coast (both onshore and in shallow water), and the US dee
