New analysis from Rystad Energy shows service companies are beginning to raise prices after seeing a significant drop following the oil price downturn. Pricing power is projected to keep rising in 2020 as the service industry sees more demand across the supply chain.

Reports 20 June that Iran shot down a US Navy drone over the Strait of Hormuz—the global oil market’s most critical transit point—exacerbated tensions in the region following a pair of attacks on oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman just a week earlier.

Marathon Oil says its shale fields are producing more oil and gas with less hands-on work from company personnel thanks to a growing arsenal of digital technologies and workflows.

The oil industry is investigating carbon capture and sequestration projects after Congress passed expanded tax credits last year. But questions linger about how much industry investments will actually lower greenhouse gases.

The Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement is launching a safety initiative to bring critical information directly to offshore workers on the outer continental shelf. The BSEE!Safe program uses text messages to send links to its published Safety Alerts and Bulletins.

A key driver of socioeconomic change in any project context can be rapid population growth. Labor influx can have positive effects, but it often results in adverse effects. This paper summarizes a portfolio review focused on labor influx and social effects commissioned by the World Bank.

My visit to China consisted of some very substantial meetings with the members from the SPE Beijing Section as well as the Northern China International Section.

Numerical simulation methods of compositional models were incorporated with logarithmically spaced, locally refined, and dual-permeability reservoir models and local grid refinement (LGR) of hydraulic-fracture conditions to investigate the feasibility of CO2 injection in shale oil reservoirs.

In the first paper, a comprehensive experimental evaluation of gas injection for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in organic-rich shale and, in the second, the effect of fluid transport in organic-rich shale on recovery mechanisms under gas injection.

This paper involved laboratory experiments introducing miscible gases into core samples to investigate enhanced oil recovery (EOR) mechanisms for Permian Basin shales to provide information to design field tests for a huff ’n’ puff (HNP) recovery process.
