Oil and gas companies drilled 75 “high-impact” wells in 2024, representing 5.2 billion BOE.

This paper presents a novel methodology that merges principles of physics, data science, and uncertainty modeling to offer more-resilient and -precise solutions for managing real-time pipe-sticking occurrences

As carbon capture scales up worldwide, the real challenge lies deep underground—where smart reservoir management determines whether CO₂ stays put for good.

Fawaz Bitar, BP's senior vice president for HSE and carbon, spoke at a recent health, safety, and environment conference in Aberdeen about the importance of health in the industry. Here is a transcript of his speech.

The supermajor follows other oil companies including ExxonMobil, Equinor, and Occidental Petroleum in the hunt to bolster US supplies of lithium.

Modern carbon capture and storage projects demand simulation workflows and advancements that can effectively capture not only multiphase flow but also thermal, chemical, and geomechanical processes over timeframes far exceeding conventional production cycles.

The journey to safety excellence is not paved with quick fixes but with deliberate, data-informed strategies.

This month’s selections of unconventional technology articles investigate the factors affecting productivity and performance and highlight the need for effective strategies to enhance performance and mitigate impairment issues.

Decarbonation has maintained its attraction, as observed from the past year of papers reviewed for this feature. Regarding CCS, challenges have been addressed through various techniques, including laboratory experiments; modeling studies; and field-scale application testing, monitoring, and risk assessment; as well as value chain and economic analysis.

An innovative approach uses a random-forest-based framework to link logging-while-drilling and multifrequencey seismic data to enable dynamic updates to lithology parameter predictions, enhancing efficiency and robustness of geosteering applications.
