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.

The Midland-based service company operates a fleet that is now 65% either dual-fuel or electric-powered.

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.
