Reservoir
The service giant shares how its new technology can sense rock properties 50 ft ahead of the bit in horizontal wells.
This study aims to thoroughly assess the influence of various completions, fracturing stimulation, and intrinsic reservoir properties affecting the productivity of 10 major unconventional plays while uncovering insights and trends unique to each play
The authors present an efficient workflow using an embedded discrete fracture model to simulate carbon-dioxide flow by use of conductive faults.

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

Matthew Bryant has spent years trying to convince engineers that the API proppant testing standard has significant limitations. And he may well be right.
-
Losing drill-hungry independent and private companies in the region to robust M&A will mean an activity slowdown that is expected to impact volumes coming from the nation’s largest oil field.

The US upstream sector began 2024 with $51 billion in mergers and acquisitions though Enverus outlines why the dealmaking may slow down.
-
The index integrates three independent components extracted from static and dynamic parameters: reservoir permeability thickness, movable gas, and reservoir pressure from a historically matched dynamic model.
-
If optimized to scale, fast fission reactors could play a role in reducing emissions in field operations by producing carbon-free electricity.

Oil production from thin-oil-rim fields can be a challenge considering early gas breakthrough and high gas/oil ratio. This study evaluates the performance of autonomous inflow control valves (in comparison with inflow control devices and sand screens) and their effectiveness in improved oil recovery in such fields.
