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 paper aims to assess the effectiveness of using advanced integrated production-data-analysis techniques for condensate-rich tight gas fields.
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.

The Norwegian technology developer is working to strengthen the value case for wired pipe through an upcoming offshore campaign with Vår Energi. -
This paper highlights nontraditional methods to cure oil-based-mud losses in horizontal wells drilled in unconventional plays.
-
The authors of this paper write that the use of high-angle wells through anisotropic shale formations represents a promising approach to improving oil recovery while reducing the overall number of wells required.
-
This paper presents a continuous passive magnetic ranging technique that can provide real-time distance and direction to the offset well while drilling without interrupting drilling operations.
-
This paper highlights the continuous improvement of multilateral technology used in the Middle East by demonstrating how the application of a multilateral well strategy is a proven and reliable method to reduce time-intensive operations.

This paper presents a lost-circulation model used during design and job-evaluation phases to accurately predict top of cement and equivalent circulating densities.
-
This comprehensive review of stuck pipe prediction methods focuses on data frequency, approach to variable selection, types of predictive models, interpretability, and performance assessment with the aim of providing improved guidelines for prediction that can be extended to other drilling abnormalities, such as lost circulation and drilling dysfunctions.
