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.
-
Russia is pouring investment into liquefied natural gas projects as it seeks to leverage the world’s largest natural gas reserves together with the logistical advantages of delivering it at a competitive price to Asia and Europe along the now-navigable Northern Sea Route. -
In a natural pivot from oil and gas E&P, former oilfield executives are taking up the hunt for helium. Helium is used in a wide variety of products, such as rocket ships and computer chips, and, while there is still plenty left to find on Earth, finding quality commercial quantities can be a difficult task and reserves are running low.
-
After more than 2 decades of talk, multiple millions of dollars in investments, and a decade’s worth of joint industry projects, operators are starting to get on board with electrification as the base case for subsea solutions.
-
The application of an extended-release scale-inhibitor in approximately 70 vertical conventional wells in the Permian Basin has shown approximately three times better performance compared to the incumbent chemical.
-
Brazil has plans to create a competitive gas market. Equinor is operating two big projects that could offer a model for how a company not named Petrobras could market gas produced offshore.
-
The impact of orphan wells, both on the environment and on tightening budgets, is a growing concern in the industry. Boom times result in a vast uptick in wells drilled. In bust times, when companies disappear, the liability outlook for these probes gets murky and federal and state governments start looking for answers.
-
Advanced robotics is poised to make a big splash in the oil and gas industry, but when and just how big will it be?
-
Extended-reach drilling is becoming more of a mainstream technology as the industry seeks to squeeze difficult reserves and reduce the footprint of projects in fragile environments.
-
A fast-moving pressure pulse is the priority of a research and development initiative that, if successful, will result in a new diagnostic technology for horizontal wells in tight reservoirs.
-
A wellbore repair tool was successfully deployed to rectify collapsed tubing in a remote well off the coast of Papua New Guinea.
