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.

In 2022, the topics of the cementing and zonal isolation papers published were generally similar to those presented in previous years. A noticeable departure from previous years, however, was that many of the authors emphasized that their work would result in a reduction of greenhouse-gas emissions.
