Enhanced recovery
This paper presents a novel workflow with multiobjective optimization techniques to assess the integration of pressure-management methodologies for permanent geological carbon dioxide storage in saline aquifers.
This paper reviews lean construction management processes adopted in the Apani Field development, from facility design to construction management and drilling-location preparation.
This study integrates physics-based constraints into machine-learning models, thereby improving their predictive accuracy and robustness.

By acquiring Eni’s two producing shallow-water assets, Hilcorp will become the largest offshore oil producer on Alaska’s North Slope.
-
Pilots and papers are plentiful, but the shale sector has no big enhanced oil recovery projects to speak of. It may just have to stay that way for a while.
-
This study proposes a hybrid model that combines the capacitance/resistance model, a machine-learning model, and an oil model to assess and optimize water-alternating-gas (WAG) injectors in a carbonate field.
-
This paper describes a hydraulic fracturing pilot project using a technique that generates higher fracture conductivity to reduce the drawdown during production and improve connection through laminations.
-
This paper presents a case study of a North African oil field producing from two Ordovician sands with differing permeabilities where significant benefit was achieved by fracture stimulating one or both intervals in two wells.
-
This paper describes the stimulation of a horizontal water-injection well with a limited-entry-liner completion in an onshore carbonate reservoir using a large volume of viscoelastic diverter-acid fluid system ahead of the main acid stage.
-
This paper details a successful pilot to improve long-term well performance using acid stimulation aided by a tailored metal oxide nanoparticle-based fluid in the Wolfcamp A formation.
-
This study introduces a detailed model to capture the physics and chemistry of acid flow in complex horizontal wells completed in carbonate formations.
-
The authors of this paper describe a project in which far-field diverters were pumped to mitigate wellbore sanding and production loss in existing parent wells.
