This case study describes how edge computing and industrial internet of things platforms were deployed to automate and optimize production operations across four distinct basins. -
This case study presents a procedure in which the operator compared production from wells with adjusted wettability to a control group, finding that the adjustments resulted in significant improvements in production and reductions in produced water. -
As equipment advances to handle extreme pressures and temperatures, new Gulf opportunities are emerging—alongside increasing operator demands for standardized, scalable, faster, and more affordable solutions. -
Ultradeepwater prospects along the northern coast of Brazil could help offset decline in legacy basins, though permitting hurdles remain a wild card. -
The US federal government is working to stymie offshore wind power, but proponents aren’t going quietly. Armed with data, they are taking on a sea of misinformation and hostility to defend the burgeoning resource in the US, while the rest of the world moves ahead briskly. -
This case study from SLB and offshore producer PRIO describes the longest openhole section in Latin America with the highest extended-reach drilling ratio in Brazil’s history.
-
Governments and companies in the Middle East look to carbon capture and storage for reducing environmental impact and boosting oil production. -
A growing chorus of suppliers, researchers, and service companies is persuading US operators to re-examine their use of slickwater in shale plays and consider displacing it with carbon dioxide and nitrogen.
-
The vision of fully automated drilling rigs driven by big data gathered in real time looks so far off but there are people working on a road map to help the oil and gas industry find its way there some day.

Petronas has a goal of transforming itself from a technology user to a technology developer, and the fruits of that drive were on display at the OTC Asia.
-
New energy legislation in Mexico offers significant exploration and production (E&P) investment opportunities and also promises to transform Mexican state oil company Pemex, said participants at one of several special sessions at OTC Asia focusing on individual countries.
-
Malaysia has set its sights on the elevated position of the energy hub of Asia, despite a resource base that is modest compared with some of its neighbors.

Nearly 2 decades after it was dreamed up as a way to do the job of two icebreakers with just a single hull, the oblique icebreaker has been launched into service in the Gulf of Finland. The Baltika, a first-of-its-kind vessel, completed sea trials in March and despite it launching too late in the season to work in heavy ice conditions, it will nonetheless provide a ba…
