Drilling
The agreement focuses on improving operational efficiency and consistency through advanced digital tools and real-time data integration.
An innovative approach uses a random-forest-based framework to link logging-while-drilling and multifrequencey seismic data to enable dynamic updates to lithology parameter predictions, enhancing efficiency and robustness of geosteering applications.
Oil and gas companies drilled 75 “high-impact” wells in 2024, representing 5.2 billion BOE.

Historically, invert-emulsion drilling fluids are the preferred system for drilling offshore Cameroon. However, with a regulatory environment moving toward zero discharge, associated costs are rising.
-
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.
-
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.
