This paper presents a study conducted on past through-tubing sand-screen installations to understand performance and develop a workflow to improve future installations. -
With artificial intelligence and online training both on the rise, it's crucial to ensure workers and companies treat safety as more than a box-checking exercise.
-
In today’s era of asset management, digital twins are changing risk management, optimizing operations, and benefitting the bottom line.
-
The SPE International Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference and Exhibition opens with calls to adapt technology while addressing regional realities.
-
Intelligent completions could improve many of the world’s oil and gas wells, but not all are suited to the technology. There is another option.
-
Casing deformation has emerged as a major challenge in China’s unconventional oil and gas fields, prompting the development of new solutions to address the issue.
-
The US supermajor is using one of its lowest-value hydrocarbon products to generate double-digit production increases in its most prolific US asset.
-
This paper presents the characterization and comparison of a metakaolin-based geopolymer as a candidate treatment for remedial operations in oil and gas wells versus conventional state-of-the-art materials.
-
The collaboration has announced Closed Loop Fracturing, which combines real-time subsurface data with automated surface control.
-
Researchers with the National Energy Technology Laboratory showed that naturally occurring signals in underground fluids can serve as effective indicators of flow patterns between existing wellbores. Understanding these patterns can lead to increased efficiency and safety.
