Permian Basin

Texas regulators are taking public comment about how they should implement an EPA rule to reduce methane leaks from the oil and gas industry.

Marshall Watson, SPE member, professor, and chair of the petroleum engineering department at Texas Tech, helped train the crew of Paramount’s new series "Landman" to portray the industry authentically.

This paper examines how data-science-driven work practices can result in substantial reductions in methane emissions compared with other leak-detection and -repair methods.

At SPE’s Permian Basin Energy Conference, operators shared behind-the-scenes details on innovations such as drilling horseshoe wells and trimulfrac completions along with in-basin challenges such as handling produced water.

The deal expands ONEOK’s gas transmission and processing footprint in the Permian, Louisiana, and Oklahoma.

Operator acquiring oil-weighted New Mexico assets of both Franklin Mountain Energy and Avant Natural Resources.

ExxonMobil developed an automated system to identify nonproductive and underperforming Permian Basin wells and prioritize high-volume wells to return to production.

This paper presents a specialized workflow that aims to quantify the severity of condensate banking and subsequently optimize reservoir development strategies for a deep formation in the Permian Basin.

This paper describes numerical modeling studies of fracture-driven interactions using a coupled hydraulic-fracturing-propagation, reservoir-flow, and geomechanics tool.

This case study outlines a methodology to optimize and control hydraulic fracturing parameters by achieving 100% cluster efficiency and overcoming formation leak-off.
