A field test study examines micro turbine drilling in a clay formation that allows steel casing and formation to be drilled in a single operation.
Aurora Innovation and Detmar Logistics have inked a deal for 30 autonomous trucks that will begin hauling sand in the region next year.
This paper compares various drainage strategies and well completion configurations on the installation of inflow control technology by considering energy efficiency.

Fracture monitoring to optimize fluid volumes and designs remains a critical area of development. Research is ongoing with the focus on combining different monitoring technologies including tracers, fiber optics, downhole cameras, and microseismic monitoring. -
This paper describes efforts at the Hydraulic Fracturing Test Site 2 to collect a research data set to improve understating of spatial and temporal hydraulic fracture dimensions, proppant distribution, and reservoir depletion.
-
This study illustrates how a combination of a straddle-packer system and a downhole real-time telemetry successfully stimulated up to 38 stages while maintaining packer-seal integrity and downhole pressure.
-
This paper presents an integrated system for fracturing optimization using real-time and historical data along with organizational knowledge and the challenges and key considerations of implementing such a system.
-
This paper describes the analysis of actual performance data for acid fracturing in a tight carbonate formation to investigate the ineffectiveness of the process.
-
The authors of this paper describe an underbalanced coiled-tubing drilling campaign in the operator’s onshore fields using a closed-loop system design.
-
The authors describe a casing-leak-repair alternative to allow continued hydraulic fracturing of an unconventional formation.
-
The authors describe coiled tubing operations that used a riser on a monohulled vessel already performing riserless interventions.
-
In this paper, a comparison is presented of the range of production outcomes for Clair Phase 1 and Clair Ridge, including the potential downsides of relying on natural fractures.
-
This paper presents a novel mathematical model for design and evaluation of fluoroboric acid treatments that takes into account the chemical kinetics and equilibrium aspects of important reactions and fluid flow inside the reservoir rock.
