Drilling
Output is rising fast in the South American shale play and putting Argentina on a course to soon reach 1 million B/D.
This guest editorial addresses the need for high-temperature directional drilling technologies as the number of rigs used to develop next-generation geothermal wells is set to rise in the coming years.
This study aims to systematically assess casing integrity and corrosion risks associated with CO2 injection in oil-recovery operations.

Casing drilling is a method by which the well is drilled and cased simultaneously. -
Managed-pressure drilling (MPD) has been used in Vietnam since 2007 to address a number of drilling and reservoir challenges.
-
Determining the fluid properties of a reservoir by using pressure/volume/temperature (PVT) analysis is essential to petroleum reservoir studies, production equipment design, and reservoir recovery efficiency estimation.
-
Deepwater cementing becomes increasingly challenging as drilling operations move to greater water depths and more-remote locations.
-
ADMA-OPCO had integrity problems in one of its gas wells, and abandonment was the only option available to restore the integrity of the offshore multiwell jacket and revive adjacent wells.
-
This paper discusses the design, manufacture, and application of a contiguous blade of polycrystalline diamond (PCD).
-
This paper outlines two lesser-known types of torsional dynamics observed while drilling interbedded carbonate formations in the Middle East with the latest generation in point-the-bit rotary-steerable systems (RSSs).
-
The Nini East field represents a significant drilling challenge.
-
This year has been a great year for me; I was able to play more rounds of golf than expected! I was also successful in sealing a few research collaboration agreements within the oil and gas industry.
-
When oil-based mud is used, the drilled formation solids (cuttings) are regarded as controlled or hazardous waste.
