Formation evaluation
The authors describe the effectiveness of an electromagnetic look-ahead service while drilling in terms of providing accurate formation profiles ahead of the bit to optimize geostopping efficiency.
In the past year, publications on CO2, natural gas, and hydrogen storage have increasingly focused on the design, evaluation, and optimization of storage plans. These efforts encompass a broad spectrum of challenges and innovations, including the expansion of storage reservoirs from depleted gas fields and saline aquifers to stratified carbonate formations and heavy-o…
This study integrates recently developed formation testing with advanced petrophysical logging to address limitations of traditional methods in volcanic breccia formations.

Any oil and gas deal usually involves a data room, where rich seams of proprietary information can be mined for a limited period. -
The variable data quality of core analysis, the sensitivity of results to different test methods, poor reporting standards, and the reluctance of some vendors to share experience and expertise have contributed to basic mistakes and poor data quality.

When interviewing potential senior-petrophysicist recruits, we exchange pleasantries to break the ice and then I ask an easy, yet fundamental technical question: “How would you explain Archie’s law to an inexperienced colleague?” Then, I sit back in expectation of a slick answer from the candidate. Imagine my surprise when the interviewee takes a sharp intake of breat…

Exploration wells, unconventional plays, and development wells can benefit from NeoScope, a sourceless formation evaluation-while-drilling solution. Two case studies share how the technology mitigates the risks or logistic complications associated with chemical nuclear sources.
