Many of the top-level executives attending the SPE Annual ­Technical Conference and Exhibition (ATCE) in Dubai see the oil and gas industry rising from a market that has bottomed out and is on the rebound.

The opening of Mexico’s oil and gas sector was a landmark moment in the industry, but despite the potential upside, the uncertainty and risk surrounding unfamiliar offshore territory in a volatile price market kept many potential investors at bay.

Lessons learned in debottlenecking a “dirty” triethylene glycol contactor at the ExxonMobil Upstream Research Company’s LaBarge Black Canyon Facility in Wyoming highlight the results of work performed between 2001 and 2004.

At the 2014 SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference in February, former Texas A&M Department of Petroleum Engineering head Stephen A. Holditch received a well-deserved lifetime achievement recognition, the Legends of Hydraulic Fracturing Award.

The purpose of this paper is to apply multivariate statistical modeling in conjunction with geographic-information-systems (GIS) pattern-recognition work to the Eagle Ford.

Production from the Bakken and Three Forks formations within the Williston basin is continuing to climb as a result of applied horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing.

Using large-scale hydraulic-fracturing experiments on tight shale outcrops, three dominant regions controlling stage production were identified.

An analysis of thousands of fracturing treatments in major plays in the United States provides insights into how fracture designs have changed over time.

This paper describes the application of the iterative ensemble smoother to the history matching of the Norne field in the North Sea.

In the past decade, there has been a great deal of research and progress in the development of computational methods to assist reservoir engineers in the arduous task of history matching their models.
