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.

SPYDR, MetaRock team up with Pioneer Natural Resources for a pilot program in the Permian Basin to test real-time fluid monitoring. -
Green hydrogen is currently dominating the energy transition conversation. But will it dominate the future market for clean energy?
-
African oil and gas is increasingly becoming an investment magnet as new discoveries position the continent as a guarantor of energy security to emerging Asian nations and as Africa itself seeks to enter the 21st century.
-
Fluid identification, a critical process in fluid sampling, continues to be a challenge in temperatures above 350°F. At temperatures up to 450°F, fluid identification is currently achieved by bubblepoint and compressibility measurements, which cannot quantitatively measure contamination levels of the sample fluid. A possible solution involves using pyroelectric detect…

The way gas injection is used to lift oil and water to the surface needs to change because better control and data may mean more production. At a time when engineers are managing so many wells, they need help from machines.
-
Getting more out of gas lift requires understanding how gas injections interact with the oil, water, and gas flowing up the well—in other words, multiphase flow. Some papers are listed to get you started.

NASA is undertaking a drilling project on the Moon—the first on any planetary body outside the Earth. The mission’s purpose, collecting subsurface soil and ice samples to search for water beneath the lunar surface, is being compared to collecting core samples on Earth and will use technologies, such as a rotary-percussive drill, that have been adapted from those for h…

The Gas Exporting Countries Forum (GECF) forecasts in its annual global gas outlook that natural gas will comprise nearly a third of the global energy mix by 2050 and fuel more than half of the world’s electricity production. So, when it comes to fixing climate change, natural gas is one fossil fuel that can’t be dismissed. The 11 countries comprising the GECF control…
