Management
This paper describes a data-driven well-management strategy that optimizes condensate recovery while preserving well productivity.
This study identifies critical knowledge gaps in wellbore integrity and underscores areas that require further investigation, providing insights into how wellbores must evolve to meet the technical demands of the energy transition.
This paper explores the evolving role of the digital petroleum engineer, examines the core technologies they use, assesses the challenges they face, and projects future industry trends.

This paper discusses how a traditional stochastic approach in project economics used for screening and ranking can sometimes limit management visibility of all possible outcomes in a project. -
Updates about global exploration and production activities and developments.
-
This paper discusses how multiple reliable technologies may be used in concert to establish reasonable certainty for reserves estimates through the flexibility provided by the Petroleum Resources Management System.

A case study presented at ATCE took medical science to a new low—into the depths of the Permian Basin for application to downhole reservoir drainage diagnostics.
-
A survey of SPE members associated with a university, or their job/role to be faculty, collected information about the effect of the energy transition on recruiting students, strategic directions in academic programs, and maintaining a relevant curriculum for future careers.
