As Permian production ramps up and saltwater disposal well capacity is pushed to its limit, companies see a need to develop collaborative, commercially viable methods of handling produced-water volumes. If reuse remains at its current rate of only 15%, operators could face a $30-billion tab.

Merging tried-and-true physics-based models with data science is bolstering the Houston independent’s reservoir-engineering work on its deepwater and shale assets.

The company's second location in the area is expected to increase the production capacity for large-scale exploration and production digital transformation projects that are already under way.

The $30.5-billion project is expected to produce 18 mtpa of LNG once it starts up; commissioning is expected sometime in the mid-2020s. Canada’s investment includes $160 million to fund energy-efficient turbines, which the government says will minimize greenhouse gas emissions.

Quantum computers exploit the peculiar behavior of objects at the atomic scale and use the qubit as the basic unit of quantum computing. A quantum computer with only 100 qubits would, theoretically, be more powerful than all the supercomputers on the planet combined.

The well count and completion intensity of US tight oil and gas operations have grown in recent years, and rising pressure from environmental regulations means that produced water management has become a key focus for operators.

Twelve organizations—universities and private technology companies—will conduct research and development on emerging shale plays and technologies covering everything from digital pressure-sensing to smart microchip proppant.

Baker Hughes, a GE company, (BHGE) and C3.ai announced a joint venture agreement that brings together BHGE’s fullstream oil and gas expertise with C3.ai’s unique artificial-intelligence software suite to deliver digital transformation technologies and drive productivity for the oil and gas industry.

Norwegian authorities approved development plans for Duva and Gjøa P1, both of which are expected to produce first oil in late 2020. The fields will each tie back to the Gjøa platform on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.

The deal consists of stakes in nine shallow-water producing fields covering 108,000 gross acres in 10–50 m of water.
