Completions
Three papers are highlighted as the primary contributions because of their broad industry relevance. They focus on improving formation particle-size characterization, expanding the application of openhole gravel packs in depleted and compartmentalized reservoirs, and advancing the understanding of capillary pressure in sand production.
This paper aims to establish a set of best practices for generating particle-size-distribution data from core samples.
This paper discusses the successful execution of two openhole gravel-pack completions in two Gulf of Mexico fields with depleted reservoirs.

SponsoredCatalyst Energy Services’ innovative technology lowers CO2 equivalent greenhouse gas emissions up to 40% and reduces waste up to 99% without sacrificing production output.
-
The paper presents a time-domain electromagnetic tool capable of quantifying four barriers individually and inspecting a fifth barrier qualitatively.
-
This paper describes an approach to estimate and remove guided-wave noise from array hydrophone data to improve accuracy of leak-source locations.
-
The paper describes a sensing system using distributed fiber optics that showed promising preliminary results for use in detection of riser gas in the form of kicks.

Hitting the next well during fracturing happens all the time. Predictably doing that on a large scale in granite looks a lot harder.

This paper focuses on identifying a hydrofluoric-acid-derivative treatment that could be used as a single-step sandstone-acid treatment with all the associated benefits but without the need for acid-flowback services.
