Production
Over a dozen new projects aim to keep US offshore output near 1.8 million B/D through next year.
Spanish yard will prep the almost 40-year-old FPSO for redeployment opportunities for new owner.
This paper describes the use of coiled tubing in a pilot project for carbon dioxide injection, enabling evaluation of the conversion of an existing oil field for CCS purposes and derisking storage-development uncertainties before having to cease hydrocarbon production.

The average geothermal gradient in the subject deepwater field in Nigeria is 4.37°C/100 m, nearly twice the gradient in most fields. As a result, the magnitude of the expected annular pressure buildup (APB) during steady-state production is large enough to threaten well integrity.

The complete paper describes the first successful implementation of natural dumpflooding offshore Malaysia as a case study to provide insight into the value of using the approach to maximize oil recovery in a mature field, particularly in a low-margin business climate.

In this year’s papers on mature fields and well revitalization, I have found operators focusing on making all-out efforts to improve their ongoing waterflood operations to extend the life of existing wells, which is preferred over drilling new infill wells.

The complete paper outlines some of the challenges involved in late-life field management and how Reserves assessment may be affected.
-
Final lab testing has been completed and field trials of the ultrahigh expansion bridge plug will begin by the end of this year.
-
The agreement will introduce rod couplings coated with nanolaminate technology with the goal of improving equipment reliability.
