case study
-
Data mining techniques are unlocking new insights from the performance of thousands of Bakken wells. This article explores how those insights are helping refine completion optimization. -
Three case studies consider the gas-related reasons electrical submersible pumps fail in unconventional shale environments.
-
SponsoredAltitude Energy Partners optimized drilling efficiency by minimizing dysfunctions and protecting downhole components. Their directional drilling team ensured consistent curves and laterals through precise BHA design, modeling, and trajectory control—reducing nonproductive time and drilling costs, and achieving a 100% improvement in efficiency by pad completion.
-
Field examples from the Bakken Shale and Permian Basin illustrate the benefits of deploying polymer-coated and uncoated scale inhibitors in unconventional wells.
-
New case studies highlight how artificial intelligence, advanced hardware, and innovative business models are enabling success in drilling automation.
-
Advanced tracer technology was deployed in Oklahoma to analyze production across lateral well sections.
-
Field examples of operators using chemical restimulation to boost production in aging unconventional wells as an alternative to acid treatments.

The oil and gas industry must balance global energy demands with stricter environmental regulations, particularly in drilling, where risks and complexities are higher. Innovative technologies, like those used in this stuck-pipe scenario offshore Azerbaijan, are key to overcoming these challenges and improving safety, speed, and efficiency.
