Autonomous drilling through managed pressure drilling (MPD) at the Atlantis field has given the operator confidence to scale the method.
The cloud platform provider said the initiative is designed to help energy companies manage and analyze large-scale operational data.
Major increases in hydrocarbon production require both incremental and revolutionary technologies, industry leaders said during the SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference.

Betsy Woudenberg examined recent incidents and described how the oil and gas industry can develop the culture needed to combat cyber espionage in her SPE Digital Energy Technical Section presentation. -
For openhole horizontal wells, providing power and data through an umbilical is very challenging.
-
The paper describes the hardware and user interface, the procedures for installation and acquisition, and several examples of field data and well-performance analysis for a variety of rod-pumping installations.

With more than a decade of experience acquired using Venturi/gamma ray multiphase flowmeters (MPFMs), further gains in measurement quality and operational robustness have been achieved.
-
Case studies from around the world prove that big rewards await companies that optimize the artificial lift systems keeping their mature fields alive. The success stories involve a mix of monitoring, automation, and performance tracking.
-
Technology is improving continuously to help us with production optimization through new approaches, including downhole multiphase-flow measurement, wireless data gathering, wireless power-transfer methods, and new fluids technology.

For the planning of an enhanced-oil-recovery (EOR) project in a major mature oil field in east Malaysia, an extensive routine-core-analysis (RCA) and special-core-analysis (SCAL) program has been performed on unconsolidated clastic reservoir rocks.
-
At the recent Unconventional Resources Technical Conference in Denver, a direct measurement of what is downhole was a theme of new products offered to operators who see the need for more data on what is working, what is not working, and what could be made to work better.
