Reservoir
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.
This case study presents a procedure in which the operator compared production from wells with adjusted wettability to a control group, finding that the adjustments resulted in significant improvements in production and reductions in produced water.
This year’s selected papers showcase meaningful advances across condensate‑rich tight gas, tight sandstones, and coalbed methane reservoirs, each contributing new tools for improving predictability and field-development efficiency.
