Case studies from Devon Energy, ConocoPhillips, and others show how clever engineering and technology are being used to improve recovery and asset value. -
Novel lift systems, AI-driven automation, and real-time engineering models are helping operators extract more value from mature wells. -
This case study from ARC Resources and DarkVision outlines the use of acoustic imaging tools in two active fracturing programs in Canada to monitor well casing deformation. -
This case study from Tomax outlines the use of artificial intelligence to analyze high-fidelity data of the full drilling process. -
The creation of SPE’s Acid Stimulation Technical Section shines a light on the technique that improves injectivity and productivity. JPT talked with the chair of the new section about the importance of the technical area. -
The solvent-based technology involves a modular treatment process that uses a proprietary catalyst designed to safely and sustainably remove hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) from sour gas streams using either produced water or an alkaline water as the treating media.
-
The 2021 survey report offers additional data about the benefits employers are offering by region, job level, engineering title, and comparisons of pay changes by types of engineers. -
Totally automated drilling today looks like a robot doing all the heavy lifting on a drilling floor. By 2025, there may no longer be anything surprising about it.
-
Gazprom Neft Courts Middle East NOCs With Digital Technologies as it Seeks Bigger Role in the RegionA delegation from the Moscow-headquartered oil company recently visited Dubai with a slew of advanced technologies to see if anyone was interested in making a deal.
-
The failure of the Raptor rig to drill its first-ever well offers a short history of the challenges that came with creating the first automated drilling rig.
-
Drilling automation is not “there” yet, but it no longer seems like a pipe dream.
-
East Med gas production, leveraged by Egypt’s position at the mouth of the Suez Canal, is redefining geopolitical relations as North Africa, Europe, and the Middle East strive to create a new distribution hub for energy, legacy, and renewables.
-
Shell’s sibling solutions for its Vito and Whale deepwater US Gulf developments are proving the “design one, build two” model can work.
-
The difficulty in selling a chemical to aid subsea pipeline flow has been delivering it to the wells.
-
Over the past 30 years Caspian nations such as Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan have built thriving economies on oil and gas wealth led by global energy companies and a handful of megaprojects. As times change, that model may need to be reassessed.
-
HCl acid stimulation of carbonate production requires the retardation of the HCl-carbonate rock reaction to achieve the optimum balance between total fluid used and the enhancement of well production. The described investigation was done offshore Sarawak using Indiana Limestone cores.
