Reservoir
Operators aren’t rushing to drill, even as the closure of the Strait of Hormuz drives oil prices up.
The authors write that deployment of artificial-intelligence-based high-gas/oil ratio well-control technology enabled stabilization of well performance and maintenance of optimal production conditions.
The paper describes the revalidation of a deepwater prospect that resulted in a no-drill decision.
-
The paper assesses the technology implications of migrating LNG floating production, storage, and offloading (FPSO) concepts to inshore service.
-
For companies working to maximize production and profits, one of the biggest questions has been, and continues to be, how manyu wells to drill per square mile.
-
Some operators are returning to their North American mature unconventional shale wells to refracture, or restimulate, the rock to accelerate production and enhance ultimate recoveries.
-
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.
-
This paper presents an integrated modeling approach for history matching and economic optimization of wells producing from liquids-rich shale reservoirs.
-
The number of subsea wells has increased steadily to more than 5,500 by the end of 2012.
-
This paper presents a concept for recovery in Canadian oil sands that uses water injection to condition a reservoir interval sufficiently to relieve the overburden stress on the oil sand and increase its porosity and permeability.
