The contracts kick off another round of development in deep and ultradeep water off India’s east coast in the Bay of Bengal.

The project aims at boosting India’s domestic oil production by 11% and gas production by 15%.

Rig will continue to work offshore India.

This paper presents a novel mathematical model for design and evaluation of fluoroboric acid treatments that takes into account the chemical kinetics and equilibrium aspects of important reactions and fluid flow inside the reservoir rock.

This paper describes the building of a geomechanical model for an offshore field that integrated drilling, geology, petrophysics, and reservoir data to play a major role in the drillability and deliverability of the reservoir.

The authors describe a hybrid gas-lift/rod-pump completion designed to reduce workover rig cost and production deferment and increase production efficiency in high-gas/oil-ratio environments in marginal fields.

The Oil & Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) has invited bids for partnership to raise production from 64 marginal fields that were given to the company by the government without bidding. As they are small in size, these fields are uneconomical for a larger company.

India’s ONGC reported an oil find in Colombia’s Llanos Basin as well as a gas and oil discovery in Brazil’s deepwater Sergipe Alagoas Basin.

As part of a 2-year deal, the Kreuz Glorious will help with the inspection of offshore jackets in the Arabian Sea. Kreuz will also provide personnel for project management and offshore construction.
