An asset swap with PDVSA helps consolidate the supermajor’s heavy-oil operations in the country.
Co-owner Chevron confirmed the find at the Bandit prospect offshore Louisiana and suggested it may become a subsea tieback to existing faciltiies operated by Occidental Petroleum.
The multiyear contract with YPF includes electric pumping units and automated stimulation services.
-
The aim of this study is to incorporate detailed geological, petrophysical, and hydraulic fracturing models to better predict and mitigate the effects of interbench interactions.
-
This paper describes a study to design and implement an enhanced oil recovery project via huff ’n’ puff using Y-grade injectant.
-
The objective of this paper is to apply a developed workflow to determine the propped hydraulic fracture geometry in a horizontal multistage fractured well, incorporating production, pressure, and strain data.
-
This paper presents an approach to subsea hydrate-risk management based on the understanding that some crudes have induction properties that delay hydrate formation even when the pressure and temperature conditions reach the hydrate thermodynamic region.
-
This study compares water-based chemicals including surfactants, nanoparticles, and ketones that can be used for enhancing the oil recovery of shale-oil reservoirs.
-
Entrepreneurial mindsets with the motivation to explore new materials, not limited to focusing on traditional hydrocarbon gas, carbon dioxide, and chemicals such as polymer and surfactant, are becoming more important for broadening prospects beyond the conventional EOR scene.
-
This paper discusses a comprehensive hybrid approach that combines machine learning with a physics-based risk-prediction model to detect and prevent the formation of hydrates in flowlines and separators.
-
Operators from across the region met in Muscat to share how lessons from pilot programs are shaping cost, scale, and technology priorities across the region.
-
A collaboration between a large independent and a technology developer used low-cost interventions to optimize production from unconventional wells.

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.
