This paper explores the sustainability and safety aspects of laser perforation with a focus on factors such as water requirement, asset integrity, logistics, safety, and surface footprint.

Whether it’s reviving inactive gas-condensate wells or identifying overlooked reserves in brownfields, operators are making the most of older wells and fields.

Technology and partnerships play a pivotal role in how the oil industry finds and produces energy from frontier regions and brownfields, both now and in the future.

The authors propose a hybrid virtual flow and pressure metering algorithm that merges physics-based and machine-learning models for enhanced data collection.

This paper discusses the development of a multientry, multistage fracturing system and its advantages over traditional openhole multistage fracturing solutions.

This study introduces a cleanup- and flowback-testing approach incorporating advanced solids-separation technology, a portable solution, equipment automation, improved metallurgy, and enhanced safety standards.

This paper presents a novel workflow for using electromagnetic resistivity-based reservoir mapping logging-while-drilling technologies for successful well placement and multilayer mapping in low-resistivity, low-contrast, thinly laminated clastic reservoirs.

In this study, artificial-intelligence techniques are used to estimate and predict well status in offshore areas using a combination of surface and subsurface parameters.

This paper describes a collaborative project to analyze affected wells, identify commonalities, and optimize bit design and drilling parameters to mitigate the effects of borehole spiraling.

Experts at SPE’s Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition say that despite AI’s great potential, it’s important to be realistic about AI’s capabilities and to remember that successful projects solve specific business problems.
