In this paper, the effect of timing and pattern of well placement on NPV is studied. Three scenarios were evaluated.

A long-time energy industry executive and chemical engineer has built a new water treatment system that he says can increase recovery rates from shale wells without using chemicals and will recycle all the water used in the process.

This paper describes a case study in which four reservoir models were coupled with a production-network model, with the objectives of maximizing recovery factors, identifying operational problems, and evaluating water-production effects.

The realization that we should not look at any individual aspect of how to estimate unconventional reserves and resources properly without considering its place in the project life cycle reflects a maturity within the industry.

As the drilling industry improves its efforts to capture drilling operation activities in real time, it has generated a significant amount of data that drilling engineers cannot process on their own.

A new measurement-while-drilling (MWD) tool has been designed that can operate reliably at 200°C and 207 MPa, providing real-time direction and inclination surveys, azimuthal gamma ray, annular and internal pressure while drilling, and shock and vibration measurements.

The drive for financial performance demands a change in leadership skills at all management levels and a new perspective on change. Managers abandon a traditional control orientation for one of involvement by becoming facilitators who delegte, maintain open doors, and lead by example.
