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 study aims to systematically assess casing integrity and corrosion risks associated with CO2 injection in oil-recovery operations.

Enventure Global Technology is working to convince operators that its solid expandable steel liners perform better than chemical diverter agents for refracturing operations. Its technology is called the ESeal ReFrac Liner. -
After the 2010 subsea blowout of the Macondo well that resulted in 11 deaths and the worst oil spill in US history, early kick detection technology found itself at the top of the wish list for regulators and offshore companies seeking to avoid similar accidents.
-
Well control training programs for deepwater drillers and key rig personnel are undergoing a major overhaul that has been years in the making.
-
More precise measurement can create a dilemma. One example is the precise fluid flow measurements used to control managed pressure drilling (MPD) systems.
-
Price competition among makers of perforating guns has gotten brutal, even by the rough standards of unconventional oil business where depressed oil prices have led to deep budget cuts.
-
This paper will discuss the hydraulic-fracturing-stimulation design, execution, and evaluation for the first successful proppant-fracturing treatment in an unconventional carbonate source rock in Saudi Arabia.
-
Offshore drillers have been battered by the plunge in oil prices with falling day rates and a growing number of older rigs headed for demolition.
-
Low oil prices look like something the industry needs to get used to. “This will be with us for a while,” said Rex Tillerson
-
The oil industry has responded rapidly to the decline in oil prices of these last few months.
-
Today, there is a need for higher-strength coiled-tubing (CT) grades with better resistance to severe environments and better fatigue performance in both the tube body and the bias weld.
