Drilling
This paper presents a study that confirms glass-reinforced-epoxy-lined tubing as a reliable, cost-effective solution for long-term water-injection service in moderate-salinity offshore environments.
This study aims to systematically assess casing integrity and corrosion risks associated with CO2 injection in oil-recovery operations.
This paper presents findings reinforcing the argument that acid fracturing is a strong alternative stimulation method to improve productivity in the Austin Chalk formation.

The authors of this paper discuss deep closed-loop geothermal systems as an alternative to traditional enhanced geothermal systems for green energy production that is globally scalable and dispatchable. -
The domain expertise and technologies in the oil and gas industry such as integrated project planning and operating, extended-reach drilling (ERD), high-pressure/high-temperature drilling tools, multilateral drilling and completions, geomechanics, flow and thermal dynamics modeling, and artificial intelligence have been fueling the ongoing march for new records on ERD…

While the ongoing technical studies and technology developments in the area of formation damage are heavily focused on key damage-mechanism scenarios during drilling and production, such as drilling-fluid-induced damage, scaling, clay swelling, fines migration, and incompatibility of fluid/fluid and fluid/rock in conventional sandstone and carbonate reservoirs, there …
