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.

Algorithms are taking over the world, or so we are led to believe, given their growing pervasiveness in multiple fields of human endeavor such as consumer marketing, finance, design and manufacturing, health care, politics, and sports. The focus of this article is to examine where things stand in regard to the application of these techniques for managing subsurface en…

The cultural perception of AI is often suspect because of the challenges in knowing why a deep neural network makes its predictions. So researchers try to crack open this black box after a network is trained to correlate results with inputs. But what if the goal of explainability could be designed into the network's architecture, before the model is trained and withou…
