Drilling
US buyers are looking for extra shale inventory and added another $18 billion in purchases in October alone.
This paper presents the application of degradable particulate-diverter technology to improve oil production by effectively diverting stimulation treatment fluids away from high-water-cut, high-permeability, high-temperature producing intervals or zones.
This case study from ARC Resources and DarkVision outlines the use of acoustic imaging tools in two active fracturing programs in Canada to monitor well casing deformation.

This case study from Tomax outlines the use of artificial intelligence to analyze high-fidelity data of the full drilling process. -
Adequate consideration must be given to the potential effect of each fluid on the successive phase operations to ensure integrated well-fluids system management.
-
This paper presents the methodology for developing drill-in organophilic clay-free invert-emulsion-fluid technology that enhances well production through fundamental geological studies and fluid testing.
-
This paper presents the large-scale deployment and operational integration of an advanced, automated rheometer in the Ghawar gas field, one of the world’s most prolific and technically complex hydrocarbon developments.

The deal expands TotalEnergies' exposure to US deepwater exploration acreage in the Green Canyon and Walker Ridge areas.
-
Industry forecasts point to increasing upstream expenditure and production, even as geopolitical volatility and smaller discoveries challenge project economics.
-
Industry fundamentals continue to strengthen as rising utilization and scarce replacement capacity support higher rig valuations.
-
This paper aims to establish a set of best practices for generating particle-size-distribution data from core samples.
