Viper Energy is acquiring Sitio Royalties Corp. and its more than 25,000 net acres of royalty interests across major US shale plays.
Extensive acreage overlap and existing operational collaboration drove the acquisition decision.
This paper discusses the effect of injected-polymer viscosity on various aspects of a project, from recovery to surface facilities, including both theoretical arguments and practical field experience—which do not always align.

Definition and call for participation in the 11th Society of Petroleum Engineers Comparative Solution Project, which is motivated by the immense challenge of achieving geological carbon storage at a scale that impacts significantly atmospheric emission of carbon dioxide. -
The acquisition of SilverBow Resources gives Crescent Energy a pro forma output of 250,000 BOE/D.
-
The new award accompanies the creation of an unconventional drilling subsidiary and potential equity deals with SLB and Patterson-UTI.
-
This paper describes the technical challenges of drilling and running casing in superlaterals in the Vaca Muerta unconventional play.
-
This paper describes development-plan optimization and a probabilistic uncertainty study using Latin hypercube experimental design constrained to production performance in a deepwater Gulf of Mexico field.
-
This paper presents the design and development of a prototype intelligent water-injection and smart allocation tool aimed at achieving autonomous waterflood operations.
-
This paper describes a foamed cement solution designed and implemented to cement shallow intermediate casing strings in a heavy oil play in Northeast Alberta.
-
This paper describes the engineering design and operational execution practices that supported setting of a new extended-reach world record in a mature carbonate field offshore Abu Dhabi.

Traditional oil extraction methods hit a snag in noncontiguous fields, where conventional flow-based EOR techniques falter. In southwest Texas, a producer faced imminent shutdown of its canyon sand field due to rapid production decline. Field tests using elastic-wave EOR determined whether the field could be revitalized or if a costly shut-in process was inevitable.

Operators are turning the tide on the Lower Tertiary trend with increasingly large stimulations that are also pushing the limits of offshore technology.
