With a strong presence across US shale in the Bakken, Anadarko Basin, Powder River Basin, and the Permian, Continental Resources is expanding into Argentina’s Vaca Muerta shale as the privately held E&P giant pursues international growth.
ExxonMobil and its Area 4 partners have awarded $1.1 billion in pre-investment contracts for long-lead upstream equipment supporting Mozambique's Rovuma LNG project. The awards, led by OneSubsea, mark a key step toward FID as development advances on ExxonMobil's largest global investment.
SPE Offshore Europe 2027 has unveiled its conference theme, “(Em)Powering Europe: Securing Our Energy Future,” and opened the call for technical paper proposals for the Aberdeen event.

Prophets of doom have argued that there will be no cyclical upturn this time, that conventional offshore oil and gas developments, with the odd exception, have been squeezed out of the cost curve by the rise of tight oil. Yet there are signs of recovery that might breathe life back into the sector. -
The single independent riser (SIR) is a hybrid riser configuration optimized for ultradeepwater field development. The SIR is composed of a flexible jumper and a rigid part vertically tensioned by means of distributed or continuous buoyancy.

This paper presents a fatigue-prediction methodology designed to extend the life of unbonded flexible risers and improve the accuracy of floating production, storage, and offloading vessel response analysis.
-
This paper describes an automated work flow that uses sensor data and machine-learning (ML) algorithms to predict and identify root causes of impending and unplanned shutdown events and provide actionable insights.
-
This study used ultrasonic logging to evaluate reference barrier cells constructed with known defects. The cell concept was developed with an emphasis on low cost and ease of use.

Gecko Robotics is providing the energy industry with artificial-intelligence-enabled robots to inspect infrastructure and supply massive amounts of data to help predict failures before they occur.
-
The tank dome roof and secured marine perimeter come 8 months after the Calcasieu Project reached FID. It also comes less than a month after completing a successful string test of the refrigerant compression system.
