This paper presents a study that confirms glass-reinforced-epoxy-lined tubing as a reliable, cost-effective solution for long-term water-injection service in moderate-salinity offshore environments.
This paper introduces in-pipe inspection technologies enabling high-resolution digital measurements of tubular internal diameter and wall thickness for critical downhole applications.
Output is rising fast in the South American shale play and putting Argentina on a course to soon reach 1 million B/D.

This paper discusses the potential of seismic and seismochemical well simulation in particular within the scope of this recent technology. -
This paper presents a unique work flow that addresses in real time the challenges of perforation and fracture-treatment design while accounting for the lithologic and stress variability along the wellbore and its surroundings.
-
In this study, a laboratory analysis was conducted to study the effect of a phosphonate-based scale inhibitor on a mixture of hypersaline Arabian Gulf seawater and formation water under high-temperature/high-pressure conditions.
-
This paper contains a detailed discussion of methods and a software tool that has been developed to generate information that predicts formation-face pressures in real time with the help of live bottomhole-pressure data.

The fourth industrial revolution is taking the oil and gas business by storm. Many companies have increased resources for big-data analytics and machine learning. Though no one sees physical oilfield services as in decline, development in these areas may take a back seat to artificial intelligence.
-
The very first fracturing job used sand scooped from a nearby river. After decades of buying sand based on tight size standards, unconventional operators are increasingly going back to a broad range of sizes, similar to that river sand.

Wadhah Al-Tailji, technical manager at StrataGen, shares his latest technical reads.
-
In the fast-moving US shale sector, no market trend seems to last long. The pressure pumping market exemplifies the maxim.
-
"I have some patients whose symptoms I can’t explain," physician Ulrike Meyer said, describing nosebleeds, rare cancers, and respiratory illness among a dearth of data.
