Reservoir
The index integrates three independent components extracted from static and dynamic parameters: reservoir permeability thickness, movable gas, and reservoir pressure from a historically matched dynamic model.
Oil production from thin-oil-rim fields can be a challenge considering early gas breakthrough and high gas/oil ratio. This study evaluates the performance of autonomous inflow control valves (in comparison with inflow control devices and sand screens) and their effectiveness in improved oil recovery in such fields.
Samsung E&A takes home $6 billion of the total amount as EPC contractor.

As the biggest US companies grow bigger, the advantage of scale becomes clearer.
-
A 44-well development tests what ConocoPhillips has learned about maximizing the value of the wells by figuring out how they drain the reservoir.
-
This paper explains how an operator’s projects in the Vaca Muerta have become more-efficient and cost-effective by increasing production and reducing well-delivery-cycle time while fostering the long-term sustainability of the project.
-
This paper describes the potential, challenges, and opportunities of using a modified steam-assisted gravity drainage configuration in the Mukhaizna heavy oil field in suboptimal operating conditions.
-
This study aims at understanding the effect of a surfactant known as a high-temperature emulsifying agent as an additive to the steam-assisted gravity drainage process and the possibility of forming oil-in-water emulsions.
-
This paper describes the implementation of a hybrid technology of cyclic steam stimulation and foam into the heavy oil field development plans of the Middle Magdalena Valley basin in Colombia.
-
This paper’s focus is a case study of an Eagle Ford refracturing project in which a range of completion designs were trialed with an approach using offset sealed wellbore pressure monitoring and fiber-optic strain.
-
The authors of this paper propose a hybrid approach that combines physics with data-driven approaches for efficient and accurate forecasting of the performance of unconventional wells under codevelopment.
-
Despite tens of thousands of potential candidates and the proven upsides, the unconventional industry has largely overlooked refracturing—possibly due to the way it’s discussed.
-
The physical characteristics of heavy oil and the formations in which it is found are often unique to a region or even to a specific asset, so recovery techniques must be tuned, adapted, and sometimes invented for each region. Creative professionals around the world are taking up this challenge and sharing their work with us in a wealth of excellent recent publication…
