Reservoir
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.
The Middle East’s largest unconventional gas development officially begins production as Saudi Aramco targets 6 million BOE/D of gas and liquids capacity by 2030.
This paper reviews the simultaneous supercritical CO2/brine aquifer injection and water-alternating-gas methods for geologic carbon sequestration and proposes a novel integration with saltwater-disposal wells.

The exploration and extraction of hydrocarbons from tight or shale formations have revolutionized the global energy landscape, unlocking vast oil and gas reserves previously considered inaccessible. This article intends to explore the complexities of hydrocarbon extraction from tight and shale reservoirs. -
This paper describes a hydraulic fracturing pilot project using a technique that generates higher fracture conductivity to reduce the drawdown during production and improve connection through laminations.
-
This paper presents a case study of a North African oil field producing from two Ordovician sands with differing permeabilities where significant benefit was achieved by fracture stimulating one or both intervals in two wells.
-
This paper describes the stimulation of a horizontal water-injection well with a limited-entry-liner completion in an onshore carbonate reservoir using a large volume of viscoelastic diverter-acid fluid system ahead of the main acid stage.
-
This paper details a successful pilot to improve long-term well performance using acid stimulation aided by a tailored metal oxide nanoparticle-based fluid in the Wolfcamp A formation.
-
In this paper, the authors propose polymer-assisted water-alternating-gas (WAG) injection as an alternative method to reduce gas mobility while reducing the mobility of the aqueous phase and, consequently, improving WAG performance.
-
The authors of this paper study the effect of solids particles on oil/water separators and on produced-water treatment.
-
The authors present an efficient microfluidic platform to measure high-quality minimum miscibility pressure data of CO2 with various impurities faster and easier.
-
This study introduces a detailed model to capture the physics and chemistry of acid flow in complex horizontal wells completed in carbonate formations.
-
The authors of this paper describe a project in which far-field diverters were pumped to mitigate wellbore sanding and production loss in existing parent wells.
