Completions
This paper compares various drainage strategies and well completion configurations on the installation of inflow control technology by considering energy efficiency.
A new tubing-conveyed tool combines wellbore cleanout with multi-tracer deployment for production diagnostics and reservoir monitoring.
Technology developers expect the tight-oil industry to give lightweight proppants another look after the Permian Basin’s biggest operator becomes an adopter.

The principles behind unconventional wells lead to production profiles very different from conventional wells. High initial-production rates drop to much lower rates in a matter of months or a few years. How many in the US are currently considered low-production-rate wells?
-
The authors describe the benefits of a single-phase retarded inorganic acid system, which they write features the same benefits as emulsified acids while eliminating the drawbacks of the latter.
-
This paper presents a novel sandstone-stimulation technique using thermochemical fluids.
-
This paper presents a well-integrity-management system developed for a high-pressure/high-temperature gas field in southwest China.
-
The acquisition adds well completions services for conventional and unconventional reservoirs.
-
The deal resulted from the exercise of ConocoPhillips’ preemption right to acquire the stake when operator Origin Energy had intended to sell it to US energy investment firm EIG Global Energy Partners for $2.12 billion.
-
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.

SponsoredA novel metric allows operators to chart a new course to maximizing production. Gain greater insight into flow resistance in the near-wellbore region of a fractured well.
-
The trend toward drilling longer horizontal wells is growing with lateral lengths of 3 miles reached.
