This is the teaser.

The oil market continues to wind itself through a period of oversupply and battles over global market share, with no short-term solution apparently in sight.

The drillstem test (DST) is one of the oldest methods used to test a formation’s capability to produce hydrocarbons.

The operator of an offshore jackup rig in the North Sea required safe and efficient deployment of the completion string without killing the well during tripping.

In the realm of enabling technologies, multiphase flow modeling has proven to be one of the most important to the oil and gas industry. Without it, nearly all subsea wells would be too costly or dangerous to develop.

Deepwater and ultradeepwater completions use numerous hydraulic control lines for control and actuation of downhole equipment.

The deepwater oil sector is at a crossroads. Deepwater production (defined as oil produced in water depths of greater than 450 m) has had a spectacular run over the past decade as major oil companies broadened their portfolios worldwide.

The OTC 2016 Spotlight on New Technology awards recognize innovative technologies and allows for companies to show the latest advances in offshore exploration and production.

Many of us work in strong functional environments, where all too easily we can deploy solutions that have the potential for repercussions on other aspects of well design, construction, completion, and performance.

For engineering design teams, the market downturn is an opportunity to review practices and learn from others who have used hard times to reshape processes through simulation while cutting development time and costs.
