Updates about global exploration and production activities and developments.
A Shell partnership with YPF marks a significant milestone for the Argentina LNG export facility, raising new questions about the nation’s potential to unlock the economic power of its vast shale reserves. As Argentina seeks energy independence and global LNG market access, the partnership and other initiatives could redefine the future of its energy strategy.
Greenhouse gases are woven into every stage of a well’s life which presents challenges that demand creative solutions that do not require too much capital.

Fast-track development options are currently under review for the discovery. -
The authors of this paper describe a holistic approach toward integrating alternative fuels and novel prime movers into life-cycle performance of offshore vessels.
-
The operator believes the region has high potential for multiple hub-class targets.
-
An automated detection application helped identify stringers early for an operator of a mature field in the North Sea while drilling multilateral wells through reservoir sections containing hard calcite stringers interspersed in sand formations with low unconfined compressive strength. The application guided drilling decisions that minimized invisible lost time and sh…

This paper describes a novel distributed quasi-Newton derivative-free optimization method for reservoir-performance-optimization problems.
-
The South China Sea test could lead to a multibillion-barrel find.
-
The complete paper builds on existing tools in the literature to quantify the effect of changing well spacing on well productivity for a given completion design, using a new, simple, intuitive empirical equation.
-
This paper describes a development plan for an oil field discovered in a remote offshore environment in the Niger Delta that uses a probabilistic approach to estimate the STOOIP using low, mid, and high cases.
-
The authors of this paper describe a project that integrates carbonate stratigraphic forward models of outcropping formations and reservoir-modeling work flows.
