Offshore Eastern Canada is showing signs of life as new project commitments are firmed up and idled projects roar to life.

This paper introduces a measurement system that is agile for transport and can be installed anywhere with a small footprint while delivering reasonably accurate results.

Rate transient analysis has been challenged in every sense of the word when it comes to tight reservoirs. An ongoing joint industry project aims to turn that around.

Carbon capture and storage, with the potential for usage, will be crucial if the world is to prevent global warming. While Norway has been injecting captured CO2 in saline aquifers since the mid-1990s, there has been no attempt, and no plans exist, in Europe to use CO2 for EOR. Why not?

The authors of this paper introduce a physics-based method for explicit pore-pressure prediction in naturally fractured shale petroleum reservoirs.

This paper describes how a surveillance, analysis, and optimization plan was used to resolve subsurface uncertainties and optimize a reservoir development plan and provides lessons learned and best practices.

The authors of this paper present an autonomous directional-drilling framework built on intelligent planning and execution capabilities and supported by surface and downhole automation technologies.

A deeper understanding of the roles of individuals in the innovation process is more important than ever as the organizations that make up the industry are being fundamentally transformed. Who are the “explorers” within the sector that are hardwired to deliver tomorrow’s bolder technologies? And who are the “exploiters” that prefer to stick with less‑ambitious innovat…
