Longtime leaders in artificial lift discuss and share their insights on the rapidly evolving segment’s past, present, and future.

The world of artificial lift has witnessed a remarkable revolution over the past 25 years, with many of the events and technology trends recorded in the Journal of Petroleum Technology.

There will always be a need for good artificial lift engineers. So, what should the next generation of its professionals be trying to pursue?

The discovery in Putumayo could benefit from nearby existing infrastructure.

This paper presents an automated calibration process, probabilistic infill well ranking, and location optimization for a major heavy oil field in Colombia with original oil in place of more than 5 million STB.

The deepwater find will now be delineated to verify size.

The new agreement will see the partnership jointly invest in four deepwater projects.

The latest ruling reverses a lower court decision to block the Ecopetrol and ExxonMobil programs in the Andean nation.
