The Offshore Technology Conference selected 15 new technologies for its 2017 Spotlight on New Technology Awards. The annual awards program recognizes innovative technologies and allows com­panies to showcase the latest advances in offshore exploration and production.

Technology that allows researchers to see stress forming inside rock samples may help unravel some of the mysteries associated with fracture behavior.

SPE Certification provides an endorsement of an engineer’s technical skills and capabilities by a global organization that extends to anywhere you may travel or work—a highly desirable benefit given the global nature of oil and gas operations.

This first article in a two-part series discusses a new methodology for sizing and rating three-phase separators that is based on quantifying the actual mechanisms and physics that govern performance in typically used equipment.

Russian giant Gazprom Neft has embarked on a new upstream technology strategy that emphasizes partnerships with other firms.

As the number of tankers on the open sea remains high, a new motion-prediction software aims to increase vessel safety.

The Liwan gas reservoir was discovered in the South China Sea Block 29/26 in September 2006.

The Mensa field is a deepwater Gulf of Mexico (GOM) geopressured-gas field, producing from Upper Miocene sand with faulted four-way closure.

The deepwater Gulf of Mexico is a technically and economically challenging production environment. High rates and ultimate recoveries are required per well to offset high development costs.

Part 2 of this two-part series presents a new methodology for sizing and rating three-phase separators based on quantifying the actual mechanisms and physics that govern separation performance. An example illustrates the calculations needed to achieve the specified outlet fluid qualities.
