Mature fields
As Egypt’s largest oil and gas investor, Eni is ramping up its 2026–2027 drilling campaign with new investments cross the Mediterranean offshore, Nile Delta, Western Desert, and offshore Sinai to strengthen the country’s role as a regional gas and LNG export hub.
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 aims to showcase examples of how integrated analysis of surveillance data in the Azeri-Chirag-Gunashli field has improved reservoir understanding and informed reservoir-management decisions.

Additive layer manufacturing technology has gained prominence in the aerospace sector and is being used for the rapid production of prototype parts. Its credibility has quite literally “taken off” and is now used to build in-flight production components for aircraft.
-
One of the oldest deepwater platforms in the Gulf of Mexico has become a profit-leader for the oil major during this downturn and is now a model for the company’s other floating assets.
-
Oil and gas producers in the Gulf of Thailand face unique technical challenges. This review of papers illustrates some of the innovative solutions used in the region.
-
I would like to steer readers’ attention to new technology, advanced modeling, and the interesting topic of fracture hits.
-
After 70 years of production, more than 30% of the Arab C reservoir stock-tank original oil in place has been recovered through various mechanisms including natural depletion, waterflooding, gas lift implementation, and horizontal-well development.
-
This paper describes the first job in southeast Asia in developing horizontal-well placement in a turbidite environment.
-
This paper discusses the successful, fully integrated, 3D Earth modeling (EM) and dynamic reservoir simulation of the Hollin Formation in the Lago Agrio Field within an operator’s first producer field in Ecuador.
-
An auction of small discoveries that were passed over by India’s national oil companies is a test of the country’s efforts to boost oil and gas development by encouraging participation from inside and outside this energy-hungry country.
-
Successful rejuvenation of two declining fields was enabled through innovation in both engineering and procurement strategy.

A number of companies are pushing for alternative approaches to offshore development that seek to access marginal reservoirs. Their differing and unique ideas call for a departure from the usual playbook, but share a common goal of slashing capital costs.
