This paper provides an overview of a geothermal assessment project completed to assess geothermal energy resources in and around an operational high-pressure/high-temperature field on the UK Continental Shelf.

This paper describes a case study in which, in the absence of a conventional production log, distributed fiber-optic sensing, in conjunction with shut-in temperature measurements, provided a viable method to derive inflow zonal distribution.

The authors of this paper discuss deep closed-loop geothermal systems as an alternative to traditional enhanced geothermal systems for green energy production that is globally scalable and dispatchable.

When confronted by extremely hot wells drilled into hard rock, engineers start looking for new tools and then ask, is there a cheaper option?

This paper presents a proposed condition indicator that estimates the wear experienced by an all-metal progressing cavity pump at any point in operation and takes into consideration the effects of downhole operating conditions.

The array of papers received for review this year covers a wide spectrum, both in applications and research, which indicates that the exploration and production industry is actively working to monetize high-pressure/high-temperature reservoirs.

This paper describes an openhole wireline-logging operation in a deepwater Gulf of Mexico well in a high-pressure/high-temperature slimhole environment using water-based reservoir drilling fluid.

The paper presents predicted vs. measured wear for six wells in the Culzean field, a high-pressure/high-temperature gas condensate field in the central North Sea.

This paper reviews the successful application of a mud-cooling and managed-pressure-drilling system in a high-pressure/high-temperature well to explore the potential of a Mesozoic carbonate platform in the Nile Delta of Egypt.
