Enhanced recovery
SPE Journal is seeking submissions for a special issue on sustainable enhanced oil recovery (EOR), highlighting innovations that boost oil recovery while reducing CO2 emissions and environmental impact. The Call for Papers opens on 15 October 2026.
By integrating experimental and mathematical modeling approaches, this work aims to advance the understanding of sand-detachment dynamics and formation instability under varying saturation conditions.
As Egypt’s largest oil and gas investor, Eni is ramping up its 2026–2027 drilling campaign with new investments cross the Mediterranean offshore, Nile Delta, Western Desert, and offshore Sinai to strengthen the country’s role as a regional gas and LNG export hub.
-
This paper extends an integrated two-scale continuum model that contemplates mass, momentum, and energy changes to study the acid-stimulation process in complex carbonate acid-stimulation systems with the development of fracture and vug networks. -
The authors of this paper write that autonomous outflow-control devices can positively affect matrix acidizing by providing the best possible conformance.
-
This study combines preshear degradation, permeability, and oil presence effects to evaluate and improve polymer injectivity using acrylamido tertiary butyl sulfonate (ATBS) polymer in carbonate rock.
-
The authors of this paper describe reservoir-fluid-geodynamics processes that explain the reasons behind varying oil compositions and properties within and across different reservoir compartments.
-
This work investigates the root cause of strong oil/water emulsion and if sludge formation is occurring within the reservoir using a robust integrated approach.
-
In this work, a perturbed-chain statistical associating fluid theory equation of state has been developed to characterize heavy-oil-associated systems containing polar components and nonpolar components with respect to phase behavior and physical properties.
-
This paper aims to present thoroughly the application of subsurface safety injection valves in extremely high-temperature environments.
-
This paper presents a comprehensive model of geothermal exploitation for depleted deep heavy oil reservoirs through supercritical CO₂ injection.
-
In a deal described as possibly "one of the most important transactions BP has done in 20 years" by CEO Murray Auchincloss, the company has agreed contractual terms with the Iraqi government to invest in drilling and infrastructure to rehabilitate and boost production at the Kirkuk oil field.
-
Investigation into the parameters affecting the displacement efficiency of CO2 injection under miscible and near-miscible conditions in the presence and absence of mobile water saturation using carbon dioxide core injection experiments.
