INEOS Energy and Shell have partnered to invest in Gulf of Mexico exploration, while Eni reported strong productivity from its Geliga 1 discovery in Indonesia. Santos is advancing its Agogo project in Papua New Guinea, and ConocoPhillips received approval to redevelop several previously producing oil fields in Norway’s Greater Ekofisk Area.
This paper details a new enhanced oil recovery method piloted successfully by several operators in the Bakken and recently implemented in the Midland play of the Permian Basin.
New insights from Chevron, Occidental Petroleum, and others at the SPE Improved Oil Recovery Conference highlight the different paths companies are using to squeeze more out of tight rocks.

Subject-matter experts from industry and academia advanced distributed fiber-optic sensing technologies and their implementation in flow measurement during a special session. -
Speaking at this year's ADIPEC, leaders from BP, Shell, Petronas, ADNOC, and Eni said the energy transition must become profitable and that AI will likely play a key role.
-
The deal follows an asset swap on the same acreage earlier in the year and increases Equinor’s natural gas holdings in the region.
-
This paper describes a project in the heavy oil Captain field in the UK sector of the North Sea in which reduced environmental impact dovetails with improved economics.
-
This paper presents a specialized workflow that aims to quantify the severity of condensate banking and subsequently optimize reservoir development strategies for a deep formation in the Permian Basin.
-
This paper describes numerical modeling studies of fracture-driven interactions using a coupled hydraulic-fracturing-propagation, reservoir-flow, and geomechanics tool.
-
This paper aims to close some of the many knowledge gaps that exist in the field of drilling CO₂ storage wells, a task that is expected to involve handling an influx of CO₂ into the drilling fluid.
-
This paper describes a polymer-injection pilot in the Chichimene heavy oil field in Colombia.
-
The road to a low-carbon world is paved with more than just shiny new facilities and the promise to deliver impressive CO₂ reductions from the atmosphere. Without the software to site, monitor, and maintain those facilities, the drive for net zero would be stuck in neutral.
-
There is no shortage of quantum technology applications in the upstream industry, from supply chain to well placement, making now the time to take it seriously.
