Directional/complex wells
This paper aims to establish a set of best practices for generating particle-size-distribution data from core samples.
A shared digital mindset across subsurface, subsea, and drilling and wells is accelerating well planning at Vår Energi.
This paper aims to assess the effectiveness of using advanced integrated production-data-analysis techniques for condensate-rich tight gas fields.

new drilling method provides a solution for challenges encountered in drilling of long horizontal wells, incorporating a dual drillstring with a separate channel for the return fluid from the well.
-
The complete paper discusses the advancements in mud-displacement simulation that overcome the limitations of the previous-generation simulator and provide a more-realistic simulation in highly deviated and horizontal wells.
-
If it has been proved in the past that innovative technology is excellent for bringing more-efficient solutions to reduce costs, will digital technology be the panacea for the whole industry?
-
The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how inaccuracy in standard directional-surveying methods affects wellbore position and to recommend practices to improve surveying accuracy for greater confidence in lateral spacing.
-
The boom in organic shale plays has revealed the critical need to size hydraulic-facture treatments correctly to achieve commercial success.
-
This paper discusses the first deployment of an ICD system combined with an OBC system for a workover operation in a mature producer well in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
-
Software that offers turn-by-turn directions for drilling a horizontal well could drastically reduce the number of directional drillers.
-
Advanced horizontal drilling, multistage hydraulic fracturing, and other technologies have helped make the Vaca Muerta shale oil and gas resource economically viable.
-
Multilateral wells with smart completions controlled by different flow-control technologies offer great operational flexibility, with each lateral able to be operated and optimized independently.
-
This paper demonstrates how the latest generation of connections has been tested and validated to extreme loads before being installed in the wellbore.
