TechnipFMC, in collaboration with Halliburton, was awarded the 2025 ICoTA Intervention Technology Award and received the 2025 Curtis Blount Outstanding Paper Award.
To enable a fully interventionless approach, a barrier-rated tubing-hanger valve has been developed to eliminate slickline intervention and minimize associated risks and operational time.
This paper aims to present thoroughly the application of subsurface safety injection valves in extremely high-temperature environments.

The new pressure-pumping company says that its new natural-gas-powered fleet is the most powerful of its kind in the US market and reduces the footprint on well pads by 70% vs. the average diesel fleet. -
Gazprom Neft and a cloud computing joint venture involving Abu Dhabi National Oil Company have signed an agreement to commercialize jointly developed digital solutions in Russia and the Middle East.

Highlights of what the US oil and gas chief said to SPE members at the recent Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference.
-
The perspectives gained from the Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference offer a glimpse of life after COVID-19, which looks better and different.
-
Carbonate reservoirs require effective acid stimulation to improve well productivity. For long horizontal wells, a complicating factor has previously been the difficulty of controlling acid placement along the reservoir section. The Smart Liner concept uses a number of small holes spaced in such a way so as to distribute the acid evenly along the reservoir interval.

Even though total produced volumes are projected to hit new record highs in the coming years, treated water is expected to be comparatively lower than in the past, despite water disposal practices increasing oilfield seismic activity, with earthquakes nearly doubling in West Texas alone in 2021.
