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.
-
Drilling longer wells, increasing the number of fracture stages, and completing multiple zones in complex stacked reservoirs, along with optimizing multilateral wells with sand control to enable long laterals in stacked reservoirs, have emerged as key focuses of the industry. -
These papers underscore the need for strategic adaptation of automation systems to the specific challenges of offshore environments. The success of predictive machine learning in this context depends on its ability to offer measurable financial benefits, improve safety, and drive operational efficiency.
-
One hydraulic fracturing job can stimulate two wells, but economic success hinges on doing it in the right place for the right price.
-
A comprehensive study looks at the sealing efficiency of eutectic bismuth-tin alloy plugs in wells slated for plugging and abandonment through laboratory testing, microscopy analyses, and numerical simulations.
