Royal Dutch Shell CEO Ben van Beurden is to speak at the opening plenary session at SPE Offshore Europe 2017, which is being held in Aberdeen from 5–8 September.

The authors used historical field data from a deepwater turbidite reservoir to investigate several history-matching strategies. This project involved an integrated seismic-to-simulation study.

A nonlinear orthogonal-matching pursuit (NOMP) for sparse calibration of reservoir models has been proposed. Sparse calibration is a challenging problem because the unknowns are the nonzero components of the solution and their associated weights.

Panelists at the Offshore Technology Conference largely doubted that the oil and gas industry is making full use of digital technology for fundamental transformation.

The new economic environment known as “lower for longer” has had no small effect on offshore safety, said a panel of experts at the 2017 Offshore Technology Conference.

Companies are rethinking offshore developments and in a very tough market are finding innovative ways of bringing some projects forward.

Southwest Research Institute is adding a new facility to its capabilities in testing and evaluating subsea equipment and systems.

In this work, the authors demonstrate at a laboratory scale the possibility of using a radio-frequency heating system as a heat exchanger.

One of the oldest deepwater platforms in the Gulf of Mexico has become a profit-leader for the oil major during this downturn and is now a model for the company’s other floating assets.

As practitioners we don’t always convey that the oil and gas industry is at the forefront of many different technologies, but we should, if only because it can be a real selling point to attract young people to our industry. In that spirit, I selected three papers that deal with nanotechnology.
