Technology and partnerships play a pivotal role in how the oil industry finds and produces energy from frontier regions and brownfields, both now and in the future.

Kuwait Petroleum’s managing director of planning and finance said that more investment will be needed to keep Kuwait’s mature oil fields flowing while production is brought on stream.

The proposed joint venture aligns with Eni's satellite model strategy to create entities that manage operations and access capital markets separately from the parent company.

Mero expects to increase its production capacity to over 700,000 B/D.

The supermajor is making a major course correction as it plans to slash renewable investment and focus more on oil and gas development.

The operator plans to acquire seismic and carry out appraisal drilling at the site later this year; the find could be fast-tracked as a tieback to the Goliat FPSO.

Transitioning to a low-carbon economy demands large-scale CO2, natural gas, and hydrogen storage. In this context, the application of AI/ML technology to uncover geochemical, microbial, geomechanical, and hydraulic mechanisms related to storage and solve complicated history-matching and optimization problems, thereby enhancing storage efficiency, has been prominently …

This paper aims to investigate the use of an optimization workflow to maximize both hydrogen storage and the net present value to obtain an optimal reservoir development strategy.

This paper describes how ramp-up operations and commercialization of an underground storage asset were combined, rapidly providing a wide range of commercial services to the Italian gas system while long-term UGS performance increased continuously.

The authors introduce a novel framework combining dynamic mode decomposition, a data-driven model-reduction technique, with direct data assimilation to streamline the calibration of carbon-dioxide plume evolution models.
