Reservoir characterization
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.
This paper presents an experiment investigating dissolution of basaltic primary minerals and conditions favorable for secondary phase formation under deep subsurface storage conditions.

This paper presents two real-field case studies from the Norwegian continental shelf that use available DFA data to support the assumptions made from other data on reservoir architecture between wells. -
A study was required to determine the origin of the tremor, evaluate if it could be followed by other tremors in the future, and estimate its magnitude.

For decades, the industry has worked to realize the potential of gathering seismic data in wells. But it is a hostile environment for standard equipment. An inventor has developed a fiber optic system that can handle the heat, but he needs backers to see if it can deliver in the ground.
-
For those in shale exploration, “fracability” is a real word, a critical property, and a point of contention.
-
This paper describes the application of the iterative ensemble smoother to the history matching of the Norne field in the North Sea.
-
In the past decade, there has been a great deal of research and progress in the development of computational methods to assist reservoir engineers in the arduous task of history matching their models.
-
This paper presents an efficient history matching approach that simultaneously integrates 4D repeat seismic surveys with well production data.
-
In this paper, the authors propose a new method for time-lapse-seismic surveys focused on water-injector wells.
-
Some remarkable breakthroughs in data quality have been shared in recent reviews, and the ongoing technical developments in data acquisition and processing remain truly exciting.
