The investment underscores ExxonMobil’s pivot to Nigeria’s offshore after it finalized the divestiture of its onshore assets in the country.
The contracts build on Cairo’s decades-long strategic energy alliance with Moscow, which will soon include nuclear energy.
The paper showcases the digital journey of a brownfield where digital solutions are enhancing recoverable volume, production, and process efficiency while minimizing losses and maximizing the return of investment.

This paper focuses on the applicability of subsea processing technology employing multiphase pumps to develop marginal fields commercially. Analytical methods were used to evaluate the pumps, and the results were validated through case studies in specific fields.
-
Sustainable growth in oil and gas production must stem from a combination of new discoveries and optimized recovery from maturing fields. Therefore, development of mature oil fields has been, and will increasingly be, an attractive subject.

The new channel-fracturing technique is capable of increasing fracture conductivity by up to two orders of magnitude.
-
As a field matures, there is a crucial need to focus on integrity-related issues such as hazard prevention and mitigation.
