Switching from continuous circulation to cyclic huff-‘n’-puff operation in enhanced geothermal systems can significantly delay thermal breakthrough, sustain higher production temperatures, and improve long-term economic performance.
The two companies say they plan to work together to use agentic AI to increase the capabilities of technical experts.
This article is the first in a Q&A series from the SPE Methane Emissions Management Technical Section (MEMTS) on methane intelligence and how oil and gas teams translate emissions data into credible decisions and measurable reductions.
