This article from the SPE Integrated Reservoir Management Technical Section (IRMTS) addresses decisions that look stronger than they are and take longer to implement than the reservoir can afford.
This guest editorial examines how the most commonly used and cited methane emissions metric can create a misleading picture of upstream gas-handling performance for both the public and industry professionals.
This work introduces an analytical model for nonisothermal CO2 injection that accounts for both Joule-Thomson cooling and interformation heat exchange.

With inventories swelling and China’s stockpiling nearing its limit, global oil prices may be running out of room to hide. -
SponsoredSince 1997, intelligent completions have transformed reservoir management, but adoption remains limited due to perceived complexity. The industry reached a pivotal moment with the development of next-generation technologies that address longstanding challenges and offer simpler operation solutions.
