Major increases in hydrocarbon production require both incremental and revolutionary technologies, industry leaders said during the SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference.
This paper presents an automated workflow deployed for scheduling and validating steady-state production-well tests across more than 2,300 wells in the Permian Basin.
This paper presents a multifaceted approach leveraging precise rig control, physics models, and machine-learning techniques to deliver consistently high performance in a scalable manner for sliding.
-
Devon Energy along with petroleum engineering consulting and software firm Whitson and cloud computing company Snowflake developed a system to monitor the dynamics of 5,000 wells. -
Early adopters of large language models praise the technology’s promise to advance upstream research and software development while also offering cautionary notes.
-
Artificial intelligence is increasingly being used to assist in the development of materials, including metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), to advance carbon capture technologies. Researchers assembled more than 120,000 new MOF candidates within 30 minutes.

This paper presents an approach using artificial neural networks to predict the discharge pressure of electrical submersible pumps.
-
The authors integrated azimuths and intensities recorded by fiber optics and compared them with post-flowback production-allocation and interference testing to identify areas of conductive fractures and offset-well communication.
-
This article describes how Oxy developed an in-house application to handle critical production operations tasks including surveillance, optimization, downtime entry, and well testing. The application, called Nexus, allows well analysts and production engineers to manage twice the number of wells they were able to manage just 5 years ago.
