The loan to Arena Energy will generate an estimated 38,600 B/D in new production from 22 platforms in the Gulf.
This article from Murphy Oil outlines a modernization effort that resulted in increased scenario simulation capacity by five to 10 times.
The transaction is expected to strengthen the company's position in Alberta’s oil sands and unlock annual synergies of $54 million.

This guest editorial addresses the many capacities in which oil and gas technical professionals can play a role advancing the energy technologies of tomorrow. -
This case study outlines a full-scale testing program focused on the behavior of thermal casing connections subjected to severe bending and low-cycle fatigue loading.
-
The world produces vast volumes of carbon dioxide, and CO₂-EOR is one of the best-established techniques for increasing oil production. Despite this, its use remains limited because of economic, logistical, and operational challenges.
-
With millions of wells having been drilled in the US since the beginning of the oil age, the land is pocked with old, unused wellbores. For most, repurposing is a pipe dream. Plugging is the best option.
-
This paper presents a case study from a mature field redevelopment project where pulsed neutron logging was integrated with advanced reservoir modeling to improve the understanding of fluid-contact dynamics and optimize new horizontal well placement.
-
This paper illustrates a case study from a greenfield oil development in Sarawak that is planned for a fit-for-purpose development scope to create value and develop oil resources in a phased manner within 4 years of project framing.
-
The papers selected for this year’s feature collectively highlight the ongoing transformation of field-development planning across the oil and gas industry. A common theme among these papers is the integration of subsurface, drilling, facilities, and operational workflows into unified development frameworks.
-
This paper aims to optimize well trajectories in offshore reservoir development by applying a Pareto-based multiobjective approach.
-
This paper presents a reduced physics-based model that accelerates the ability to screen infill-location optimization, using the fast marching method to maximize production for a reservoir with multiple realizations.
-
This article from the SPE Research and Development Technical Section offers new insights to how the upstream industry can benefit from the emergence of quantum computing.
