The operator developed a solution that has kept the well at stable production for over a year after treatment.

Marking a major milestone as the Gulf of Mexico’s second 20,000-psi deepwater development, the project underscores how advanced high-pressure technology, management of flow challenges, and the floating production system’s role as a regional hub are helping open the door to more Inboard Wilcox development.

Field results highlight how rethinking tubing-anchor-catcher design can reduce gas interference and support late-life production.

Operators are turning to new gas-lift and nanoparticle-fluid technologies to drive up production rates.

This study contributes to enhancing the understanding of scale-inhibitor retention in rock formations.

This paper describes a case history in the UAE in which the cleanout of scale contaminated with naturally occurring radioactive material was conducted successfully.

This paper describes the suite of cloud-based digital twin tools that the operator has developed and is integrating into its operations, providing online, real-time calculation of scale risk and deployed barrier health to manage risk on a well-by-well basis.

This paper describes the evaluation of a recently developed robust solid dissolver that can dissolve multiple types of scale simultaneously.

The authors of this paper describe a study of magnesian calcite particles forming hard, inhibitor-resistant calcium-carbonate-like deposits and potential mitigation measures.
