Directional/complex wells
This paper presents a case study of a tool-free fishbone fracture stimulation technology using sand jetting and acidizing in openhole wells, providing a technical solution for low-permeability and complex-lithology carbonate reservoirs in the Middle East.
This case study from Erdos Miller outlines the use of magnetic short-hop technologies to complement the use of mud pulsers to transmit telemetry to surface.
This paper details a trial involving the deployment of a transportable coiled tubing (CT) unit capable of holding 30,000 ft of high-strength 2⅞-in. CT.

This paper proposes a methodology for preventing drillstring fatigue and failure in deep wells with large shallow doglegs. -
In this paper, the authors propose a regression machine-learning model to predict stick/slip severity index using sequences of surface measurements.
-
This paper analyzes the interaction of high-frequency torsional oscillations (HFTO) with lateral vibrations based on a model that accounts for the superimposed movement of whirl and HFTO at the bit.
-
This paper describes a collaborative project to analyze affected wells, identify commonalities, and optimize bit design and drilling parameters to mitigate the effects of borehole spiraling.
-
In this paper, bottomhole-assembly lateral behavior is analyzed using different types of computations, including static, dynamic, frequency-based, and time-based.
-
The agreement formalizes JV ownership of Turnwell Industries which ADNOC Drilling created to manage a $1.7 billion unconventional drilling contract awarded in May.
-
This paper describes installation of autonomous inflow control valves in the Bretaña Norte field in Peru, enabling effective water control even though the trial well was placed in the flank, close to the oil/water contact.
-
This paper describes the qualification of a multilayer, open-cell matrix polymer system for the first horizontal deployment in an offshore gas well.
-
This paper proposes a method to radically revise the well-path-generation process to reach the vision of planning a well in one day with high quality, relying on the collection of experience-based constraints from each discipline to generate possible alternatives.
-
The authors investigate the utility of applying unconventional technology to low- or variably producing carbonate reservoirs to increase estimated ultimate recovery and decrease development-scale variability.
