The increasing demand for critical minerals—the building blocks of an electrified future—is creating opportunities for the oil and gas industry to apply its extensive knowledge, tools, and data to help meet the demand.

Researchers at Texas A&M University have developed a method of refining "liquid gold" for valuable critical minerals using what many consider traditional waste products: produced water and carbon dioxide.

Find out what made the list of big technology breakthroughs that have shaped the oil and gas industry over the past quarter century.

Highlights of innovations in fracturing, drilling, and reservoir engineering include mysterious gummy bears, horseshoe-shaped wells, and automated rigs.

The “Western Haynesville” boasts big gas IPs with potential running room.

We’re excited to begin the year with the commemoration of JPT’s 75th anniversary. This issue launches our special features dedicated to JPT’s reporting of technology and practices over the past 7½ decades.

The authors of this paper describe a suite of technologies that enables enhanced well robustness and performance modeling and monitoring of carbon storage facilities.

The authors of this paper describe an approach in which all available technologies are combined to improve understanding of reservoir depositional environments.

The authors of this paper describe a project in which Raleigh frequency-shift distributed strain sensing monitored during production in a far-field observation well was translated to an estimated pressure profile.

An engineered approach to fracture growth in hydraulic fracturing highlights the successful execution of H2S prevention strategies in North Dakota’s Williston Basin.

The authors of this paper describe a project aimed at automating the task of cuttings descriptions with machine-learning and artificial-intelligence techniques, in terms of both lithology identification and quantitative estimation of lithology abundances.

The authors of this paper present an advanced dual-porosity, dual-permeability (A-DPDK) work flow that leverages benefits of discrete fracture and DPDK modeling approaches.
