This paper presents a study that confirms glass-reinforced-epoxy-lined tubing as a reliable, cost-effective solution for long-term water-injection service in moderate-salinity offshore environments.
This paper introduces in-pipe inspection technologies enabling high-resolution digital measurements of tubular internal diameter and wall thickness for critical downhole applications.
This paper presents findings reinforcing the argument that acid fracturing is a strong alternative stimulation method to improve productivity in the Austin Chalk formation.

This paper presents a physics-based approach to predict sand production for various reservoir and completion types, explored through a case study of recent production wells in a sandstone reservoir development. -
The authors of this paper develop a model that can predict well-risk level and provide a method to convert associated failure risk of each element in the well envelope into a tangible value.
-
This paper describes sand-control design and execution techniques applied to four high-rate gas wells in a deepwater environment.
-
This paper discusses novel acoustic techniques used to identify productive zones and areas of sand production in a well with a sanding event.

When Occidental Resources switched to bigger fracture designs to produce more oil, it produced more water as well. Based on research done since, they cannot have one without the other, and at the oil prices recently seen, that’s OK.
-
The authors of this paper demonstrate that future produced-water management and scale-mineral control may need to consider the sequential exposure effect of steel, cement, and shale on fluid chemistry and mineral precipitation.

Pennsylvania children living near unconventional oil and gas developments at birth were two to three times more likely to be diagnosed with leukemia between the ages of 2 and 7 than those who did not live near this oil and gas activity, after accounting for other factors that could influence cancer risk, a novel study from the Yale School of Public Health finds.
-
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solids-management technologies that are currently available and still in use topside (some of which are potentially outdated).
