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.
-
Devon, Shell, and SM Energy offer some of their latest learnings from recent independent subsurface diagnostics projects. Their work underscores why this arena of technology has become a cornerstone for hydraulic-fracture design in tight-rock reservoirs.
-
This paper highlights solids-management technologies that are currently available and still in use topside (some of which are potentially outdated).
-
This paper describes a new intelligent dosing technology to reduce liquid loading in an unconventional tight gas reservoir.
-
The key element of hydraulic-fracture modeling is the prediction of the generated fracture geometries. Research conducted over the years has trickled down predictive software. Nevertheless, the ability to design optimal fracture treatments is hampered, as we cannot “see” the subsurface.
-
Second-quarter earnings for the three biggest oilfield service companies arrived with some new takes on where the market is headed.
-
HiberHilo will be used to monitor remote oil and gas wells in Papua New Guinea, providing real-time performance and safety data.
-
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.
