After 5 years of in-depth diagnostic research, the Oklahoma City-based operator shares more insights on fracture behavior.

Analysts at Enverus Intelligence Research and Rystad Energy report that US shale consolidation has largely run its course.

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.

Operators tell an audience at the Unconventional Resources Technology Conference how a hybrid expandable liner system and machine-learning-based analysis improve the bottom line.

The Dallas-based tight oil producer will gain 33,500 acres and approximately 25,500 BOE/D from the latest deal to reshape the US shale sector.

Former CTO of ConocoPhillips, Greg Leveille, makes the case for why more oil and gas professionals should take notice of the new-age geothermal space.

Two firms are using hydraulic fracturing to create high-pressure water reservoirs that can be turned on and off to meet electricity demand.

A Kimmeridge Energy executive said at the Unconventional Resources Technology Conference that he wants to "make unconventional resources investable in a low-carbon world."

Results from more than 50,000 runs where shaped cutters resolved drilling issues demonstrate that, by matching the combination of cutters to the formation and the downhole conditions, it is possible to improve ROP, extend bit life, and drill longer runs for more cost-efficient operations.
