Saudi Aramco

A stimulation recipe that has unlocked tight-rock resources all over the world appears to work in Saudi Arabia too.

This paper presents a physics-assisted deep-learning model to facilitate transfer learning in unconventional reservoirs by integrating the complementary strengths of physics-based and data-driven predictive models.

This paper presents different geochemical approaches to assess the origin of produced gases and thermal maturity and evaluate the effect of adsorption on shale gas during production.

This study illustrates how a combination of a straddle-packer system and a downhole real-time telemetry successfully stimulated up to 38 stages while maintaining packer-seal integrity and downhole pressure.

This paper describes preplanning, execution, and results of drilling extended-reach wells with a large-bore design of 12¼-in. as the main stepout section and deploying 9⅝-in. casing at a shallow true vertical depth of 4,200 ft.

The authors of this paper present an approach integrating characterization of paleo zones, parameterization of paleo-zone conductivity, and application of flow profiles in a history-matching study of a dual-porosity/dual-permeability model.

The authors of this paper discuss Saudi Arabia’s progress in gas flaring, the measures the government has taken, and how operators have adapted.

The objective of this study is to conduct a comprehensive review of the latest technologies and work flows developed for heavy oil reservoir management.

Projects in the running include one each from Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, and Guyana.

This work explores the synergistic effects of smartwater in polymerflooding, surfactant/polymerflooding, carbonated waterflooding, and foam-assisted gas-injection.
