The Mars-B project is the operator’s sixth Gulf of Mexico (GOM) tension-leg-platform (TLP) development.

In its pursuit to enhance recovery from major producing reservoirs, the company is emphasizing high-impact technologies to achieve breakthroughs.

This study concerns the mature Gyda reservoir, where some recent production wells have underperformed relative to equivalent initial wells.

Production and drawdown data from 10 subsea deepwater fractured wells have been modeled with an analytical model for unsteady-state flow with fines migration.

In order to avoid some of the detrimental effects of formation damage, a key aspect is laboratory testing of representative core material under representative downhole conditions.

The paper presents a new approach that uses X-ray-microcomputed-tomography (micro-CT) scanning to produce high-resolution data of entire core samples.

Downhole instrumentation of the Khazzan tight gas appraisal wells provides a rare opportunity to quantify reservoir pressure and temperature dynamics.

To achieve optimal production from unconventional reservoirs, it is useful to determine the permeability, pore pressure, and state of stress of rock strata.

Energized fluids—with the success of hydraulic fracturing in the US shale-gas plays, why are more operating companies not using energized fluids to minimize the use of water, decrease the amount of proppant required, and (theoretically) enhance long-term productivity?

This paper offers an analytical model for estimating the transient temperature at a given depth and timestep, for computing the BHP.
