Enhanced recovery
Technology and partnerships remain important, while phased approaches may supplant lengthy appraisal programs, experts said during CERAWeek.
This paper introduces a novel steam-sensitive flow-control device designed to restrict the production of steam and low-subcool liquids while allowing higher mobility of oil-phase fluids.
This paper describes the operator’s initiative to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions and recover additional hydrocarbon, monetizing it as sales gas, by integrating upstream and downstream gas facilities in a unified approach.

This study integrates laboratory testing with reservoir simulation to evaluate the effectiveness of autonomous inflow-control valves in managing late-life steam-assisted gravity-drainage production challenges. -
Steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) technology continues to advance rapidly, driven by improvements in numerical simulation, inflow-control technologies, fiber-optic monitoring, and real-time production optimization.
-
This paper demonstrates the effectiveness of integrating dynamic gas separation with existing gas-avoidance methods within the same electrical submersible pump string to address these issues.
-
This paper reviews the simultaneous supercritical CO2/brine aquifer injection and water-alternating-gas methods for geologic carbon sequestration and proposes a novel integration with saltwater-disposal wells.
-
This paper introduces an agentic artificial-intelligence framework designed for offshore production surveillance and intervention.
-
This paper provides an account of the design, implementation, and operational insights from an enhanced geothermal system proppant stimulation targeting a volcanic, dry rock setting with an approximately 330°C bottomhole temperature.
-
This paper describes modeling work performed to design fracturing treatment and spacing for wells in the Project Cape enhanced geothermal system in Utah.
-
The award comes as a contract release purchase order under a long-term agreement that simplifies ongoing efforts to maintain mature field production in Saudi Arabia.
-
This paper addresses the difficulty in adjusting late-stage production in waterflooded reservoirs and proposes an integrated well-network-design mode for carbon-dioxide enhanced oil recovery and storage.
-
This work presents the development of fast predictive models and optimization methodologies to evaluate the potential of carbon-dioxide EOR and storage operations quickly in mature oil fields.
