Fracturing/pressure pumping
This paper describes an approach to creating a digital, interconnected workspace that aligns sensor data with operational context to place the completions engineer back into a central role.
This paper demonstrates how the integration of multiphysics downhole imaging with machine-learning techniques provides a significant advance in perforation-erosion analysis.
This paper presents a workflow that leverages a multiagent conversational system to integrate data, analytics, and domain expertise for improved completion strategies.
