Gas production in the South China Sea has seen an increasing trend of pipelines operating in high-pressure, high-temperature (HP/HT) conditions. This has led operators to look beyond the conventional stress-based design and move into strain-based design using the lateral-buckling-design approach. This paper presents both construction challenges and operational works p…

If there is a field where human thought is necessarily joined to action, it is health, safety, security, environment, and social responsibility (HSSE-SR). It is critical to develop the technology, the skills, and the culture needed to achieve no harm to people, no damage to the environment or the assets, and an overall benefit to society, in particular to the local pe…

A range of external expectations exists for companies to demonstrate how they respect human rights, including having business processes in place to prevent or mitigate human rights issues caused by the company’s projects or operations.

Recently, while preparing to present a seminar on deepwater-well-construction optimization, I tried hard to find a word or a phrase that could be seen as “the secret” for a safe and optimized drilling performance.

Data-mining processes are fundamental in obtaining the predictive benefits of real-time systems and have been progressing from descriptive to predictive optimization methods.

During the optimization process, the Castilla field became the model of management strategies for the rest of the fields in the company portfolio.

Integration of technology applications is paramount in increasing the success rate of data delivery.

Earthquake in Cushing, OK -- home to the largest oil storage facility in the world -- leads to further regulatory action on disposal wells in the area.

Unconventional production patterns in the Permian Basin are leading producers to replace electrical submersible pumps (ESPs) with gas lift, which had been little used there.

Use of a complex-nanofluids (CNF) additive to hydraulic fracturing fluids has doubled even as activity has fallen because of potential production increases.
