Completions
Chevron and Halliburton describe how they built and deployed the fully autonomous closed-loop fracturing system that enables subsurface-driven optimization.
Weatherford CEO Girish K. Saligram said the acquisition will bolster Weatherford’s completions offerings and unconventional reservoir capabilities.
This paper describes the successful deployment of flexible coiled tubing technology in an oil-producing well of the offshore Frade field in Brazil’s Campos Basin.

This paper discusses tools and techniques used to localize a tubing leak in a horizontally completed multilateral well, identifying the bore responsible for sand production and providing relative sand quantification at differing flow rates. -
SponsoredWhat are we, in the upstream oilfield service companies, doing about it? The Middle East upstream oil and gas industry is shifting its focus to unconventional and tight-gas resource development.

The natural fractures discovered on Mars during rover missions might be so important that they are worth bringing back to Earth.
-
The Oklahoma independent agreed to acquire the assets of three private companies in its quest to scale up in the Permian's Delaware Basin.

SponsoredThe data that comes with mapping flow behavior at the stage level of unconventional wells was once accessible only through the installation of costly and intrusive diagnostic methodologies like fiber optic or running production logging. New-generation FloTrac ultrahigh-resolution nanoparticle tracer technology with subatomic spectroscopic measurement techniques now de…

Fervo Energy’s bet that fracturing methods can be used for geothermal power is looking like a winner.
-
Over a 10-year period, sensors monitoring the motion and loads near subsea wellheads have been mounted on more than 300 drilling campaigns. Integrity parameters were calculated to assess whether subsea conductors provided the intended amount of support during drilling operations. In several of these campaigns, loss of conductor support due to integrity issues was obse…
