Unwanted water production can erode well performance and asset economics if left unmanaged. Interwell’s precision water shutoff approach, grounded in diagnostics and engineered isolation, helps operators identify water-entry points, protect hydrocarbon flow, and restore sustainable well performance in mature and complex wells.
More than 150 researchers will work on the Libra Rocks project, which aims to unlock insights that could improve recovery and reservoir management in one of Brazil’s largest offshore oil fields.

Through examples of subsalt fields of the Kaombo project, we show how new techniques have had a positive effect. -
The Risha concession, in the desert of eastern Jordan (bordering Iraq, Syria, and Saudi Arabia) contains the partially developed Risha gas field.
-
Research into whether CO2 can be used to coax billions more barrels of oil from unconventional formations is beginning to show promise.
-
Tests showing increased recoveries in the Bakken formation using CO2 could have significant implications for the upstream oil and gas industry.
-
Tight gas reservoirs and shale gas reservoirs are economically viable hydrocarbon prospects that have proved to be successful in North America.
-
Naturally fractured reservoirs (NFRs) contain a significant amount of remaining petroleum reserves and are now being considered for water-alternating-gas (WAG) flooding as secondary or tertiary recovery.
-
This is the most exciting time for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in recent memory. At last, almost everyone is talking about increasing recovery factors, and improved oil recovery (IOR) and EOR are being considered natural components of reservoir management.
-
Foam simulation brings various numerical challenges. Some of these problems are largely cosmetic.
-
This paper discusses the process undertaken by the Clair Ridge project in getting RS enhanced oil recovery (EOR) adopted as a Day-1 secondary waterflood.
-
Factors such as hydraulic gradients in the horizontal completion, geologic and fluid variations in the reservoir, and well-placement issues can produce very poor steam conformance in steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD).
