This paper explains how an operator’s projects in the Vaca Muerta have become more-efficient and cost-effective by increasing production and reducing well-delivery-cycle time while fostering the long-term sustainability of the project.
The authors challenge the traditional planning and execution of interventions, both from an operational and commercial standpoint, and examine where room exists for significant improvement in the industry
Despite tens of thousands of potential candidates and the proven upsides, the unconventional industry has largely overlooked refracturing—possibly due to the way it’s discussed.
-
This paper describes an effort to use multiple technologies to better understand an Arkoma Basin reservoir and the interdisciplinary relationship between the reservoir’s subsurface hazards and a stimulation treatment.
-
The main objective of this paper is to investigate the relationship between strain change and pressure change under various fractured reservoir conditions to better estimate conductive fractures and pressure profiles.
-
Fracturing companies can’t connect to the electric grid fast enough as they seek to reduce emissions, save costs.
-
The authors of this paper describe a suite of technologies that enables enhanced well robustness and performance modeling and monitoring of carbon storage facilities.
-
This paper presents the proof of concept of artificial-intelligence-based well-integrity monitoring for gas lift, natural flow, and water-injector wells.
-
The authors of this paper describe a project in which Raleigh frequency-shift distributed strain sensing monitored during production in a far-field observation well was translated to an estimated pressure profile.
-
This paper defines conditions for optimized well-diagnostics investigation and describes a rigless solutions for common well-barrier failures and lessons learned from operator field trials.
-
Typically, oil and gas producing wells are abandoned toward the end of their life cycles with reservoir pressures depleted compared with the virgin pressures. Carbon capture and storage projects, however, present different operating conditions.

SponsoredWith more surface facilities and infrastructure in oil and gas fields, well casing integrity is becoming an even bigger challenge. This article sheds light on the optimum way to deal with the increasing casing integrity challenges in the Middle East through field monitoring and time-lapse casing-integrity and corrosion-inspection logging.
-
This paper outlines issues to be resolved during facility design and provides guidelines, calculations, and examples for sand-handling steps to be implemented after separation.
