Production
The supermajor said the fields are not expected to contribute meaningfully to its production profile by 2030.
This paper aims to assess the effectiveness of using advanced integrated production-data-analysis techniques for condensate-rich tight gas fields.
This case study describes how edge computing and industrial internet of things platforms were deployed to automate and optimize production operations across four distinct basins.

One of the most promising targets for resource-rock stimulation in South America is the Vaca Muerta (VM) shale in western Argentina. -
Liquid loading is a common production problem in mature gas wells. Correct prediction of the critical gas velocity at which the well starts to load is very important for taking action to prevent premature loss of production.

In a riserless-light-well-intervention (RLWI) operation in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM), a crown plug failed to release.

As part of a project that involves the use of four artificial islands to drill and complete more than 300 extended-reach-drilling (ERD) wells in a giant offshore oil field, several completion designs have been piloted for brownfield development.
-
Although refracturing is a topic that has gained a lot of interest, many shale producers have been sitting on the sidelines because early results did not justify the spending
-
A panel of experts says US shale producers need to rethink their drilling and completion designs as problems mount for horizontal wells when they go on pump. Hanging in the balance is whether long-term production from many shale wells will be achievable.
-
Production engineers are often asked to manage both the artificial lift (AL) system and the upstream chemical injection program for a project.
-
Chemical sand consolidation works by pumping chemicals downhole to strengthen the formation and stop sanding. In most cases reported in the industry, chemical consolidation has been used in short production intervals (less than 100 m).

Calcium sulfate (CaSO4) in the form of gypsum and anhydrite is one of the more prevalent evaporite minerals typically found in the carbonate rocks of the western Canadian sedimentary basin (WCSB).

Sour gas is being produced from a number of carbon-steel-completed wells in the US, Canada, France, and Saudi Arabia.
