Field/project development
AI‑driven data center growth is straining US power grids and accelerating interest in enhanced geothermal systems as a scalable, low‑carbon solution.
The paper describes the revalidation of a deepwater prospect that resulted in a no-drill decision.
The following three papers show challenges and potential solutions across various stages of the deepwater well-development cycle from a variety of deepwater basins across the world.
-
The authors describe a study on key technologies for intelligent risk monitoring of workover operations. -
Formerly titled E&P Notes, this monthly snapshot of global E&P activity highlights ongoing developments worldwide.
-
This paper establishes that the use of a dual-gradient fluid column during the running of large casing in an extreme-reach deepwater well is an effective method to overcome drag and enable the casing to reach total depth.
-
The authors write that by replacing outdated, labor-intensive processes with an integrated, cloud-based platform, companies can streamline planning, improve accuracy, and foster better coordination across teams and vendors.
-
The authors write that deployment of artificial-intelligence-based high-gas/oil ratio well-control technology enabled stabilization of well performance and maintenance of optimal production conditions.
-
This paper presents the first global application of autonomous drilling in deepwater and the journey to reach optimal drilling parameters, integrating proprietary tools from the project’s business partners.
-
In this paper a case study is described in which a software solution enabled prescriptive optimization of well delivery using a physics-informed machine-learning approach for predictive identification and characterization of well-construction risks.
-
This paper describes the integration of iterative torque/drag/buckling and hydraulic simulations for multiple tapered string combinations, the results of which guided the selection of a string configuration that deemed planned well total depths feasible.
-
Hydraulic fracturing holds great potential in the region, but there are several key questions worth asking as efforts move forward.
-
Saipem can begin early subsea engineering on ExxonMobil’s Longtail project in Guyana under a Limited Notice to Proceed, while the operator awaits final investment decision and government sign-off.
