Drilling
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.
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.
