EQT is benchmarking its way to basin-leading productivity and relying on partnerships and new technology to turn KPIs into operational reality. -
Drilling experts recently shared candid views on what will be required for their segment of the upstream business to move to the next stage of development. -
This case study from Italian technology developer Sentris highlights the effectiveness of using sensors during pigging operations to optimize cleaning efficiency. -
Experts and industry leaders gathered in The Woodlands, Texas, recently to sift through the challenges of carbon capture, utilization, and storage. The puzzle is coming together, but some critical pieces are still needed before the results look like the picture on the box. -
Two examples from ONGC show how supervised AI-driven automation scaled well modeling across hundreds of offshore wells, saving more than 1,000 engineering hours. -
Examples demonstrate how an Integrated Operations Center as a Service (IOCaaS) model, powered by artificial intelligence, reduced costs by 5% and increased production by 6% in Canada.
-
An automated detection application helped identify stringers early for an operator of a mature field in the North Sea while drilling multilateral wells through reservoir sections containing hard calcite stringers interspersed in sand formations with low unconfined compressive strength. The application guided drilling decisions that minimized invisible lost time and sh… -
This case study demonstrates an estimated cost savings of AICD completions in six wells of more than $20 million in capital and operating expenses compared with a more conventional sliding side door completion to manage gas breakthrough.
-
The Gulf’s offshore wind future is no breezy affair as governments and industries must work together to meet lofty goals.
-
Glynn Williams, CEO of Silixa, offers his take on the role fiber-optic technology will play in the rise of CO2 storage and on the firm’s progress in the tight-rock sector.
-
Devon, Shell, and SM Energy offer some of their latest learnings from recent independent subsurface diagnostics projects. Their work underscores why this arena of technology has become a cornerstone for hydraulic-fracture design in tight-rock reservoirs.
-
The partnership of Subsea 7 and Flasc has a plan to use out-of-service pipelines as pressure vessels in a hydro-pneumatic energy storage concept.
-
The assumption of lower emissions from natural gas only holds true when the methane leaks and flaring are addressed. Mitigation of methane emissions offers an opportunity for the oil and gas industry to drastically reduce overall emissions that are typically reported on a CO2-equivalent basis. Some producers opt to showcase their good performance via voluntary certifi…
-
Drillers are working to find ways to break some bad data habits. Those problems can range from the use of multiple formulas to calculate mechanical specific energy to timekeeping systems where the clocks and the time records are often off.
-
With speakers from various disciplines and professions, the program focuses on industry trends, challenges, and technology applications and advances.
-
How do you make new money from old offshore fields? The choice between investing in older assets or decommissioning them depends on oil and gas prices, the ingenuity of technical people, and the willingness of a company’s executives to hold on to older assets.
