Completions
Output is rising fast in the South American shale play and putting Argentina on a course to soon reach 1 million B/D.
This case study presents a procedure in which the operator compared production from wells with adjusted wettability to a control group, finding that the adjustments resulted in significant improvements in production and reductions in produced water.
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 describes an intelligent completion design installed in two deepwater wells with dual-zone stack-pack sand-control lower completions and the installation of an intermediate string to isolate the reservoir in each zone. -
The mid-sized completions service provider is betting that automation will boost the competitiveness of natural gas-powered pumps.
-
Geologists have identified a formation with a world-changing potential for carbon dioxide storage, but some engineering is required.
-
Service company Liberty Energy has announced the formation of Liberty Power Innovations which will specialize in compressed natural gas.
-
The large US shale producer has officially entered into the renewable energy sector with its largest venture investment yet.
-
Regulators told some injection well operators close to the epicenter of a magnitude 4.0 earthquake that they will have to shut down their operations indefinitely.
-
This paper presents design considerations and field-trial applications for determining practical dimensions and limits for interdependencies associated with stage length, perforation clusters, and limited-entry pressures.
-
Two US test sites have fractured hot, dry rock with plans to create a network of fractures for water heating. They will soon find out if the fractures worked as expected.
-
A high-resolution acoustic downhole evaluation system nabs top award for 2023.

This article presents a new data-driven analysis to locate low-frequency seismic sources, referred to as near-infrasound or infrasound sources. Combining these infrasound signals with microseismicity signals allows for better characterization and monitoring of the stimulated reservoir volume.
