Delaware Basin

This paper summarizes a collaborative industry study to compare observations between shale-play data sets and basins, develop general insights into parent/child interactions, and provide customized economic optimization recommendations.

The transaction will add significant high-quality inventory offset to Permian Resources’ existing core acreage in New Mexico.

The challenge of sustaining shale production is growing larger.

A concurrent deal to sell off some of the acquired assets to Northern Oil and Gas will effectively lower the acquisition cost to $1 billion.

This paper describes efforts at the Hydraulic Fracturing Test Site 2 to collect a research data set to improve understating of spatial and temporal hydraulic fracture dimensions, proppant distribution, and reservoir depletion.

The $540 million joint acquisition is expected to close in June.

The independent sells out of south Texas shale, while expanding its Permian presence in separate deals.

The authors of this paper define a work flow that constrains solutions that match models and field observations and obtains a more-representative model for forecasting and optimizing fracture behavior.

The authors of this paper aim to identify the effect of various geologic controls on hydrocarbon maturation in the Delaware Basin by restoring regional cross sections and performing simulations of organic-matter maturity.

The recent Permian Basin earthquakes in Texas are keeping producers, regulators, and service providers busy in their quest to reduce the intensity and frequency of the induced seismic events.
