In a study that applied alternative carbon carrier technology to enhanced oil recovery (EOR) scenarios, researchers at The University of Texas at Austin found that the new method recovered up to 19.5% more oil and stored up to 17.5% more carbon than conventional EOR methods.
Casing deformation has emerged as a major challenge in China’s unconventional oil and gas fields, prompting the development of new solutions to address the issue.
The US supermajor is using one of its lowest-value hydrocarbon products to generate double-digit production increases in its most prolific US asset.

The authors of this paper analyze a robust, well-distributed parent/child well data set using a combination of available empirical data and numerical simulation outputs to develop a predictive machine-learning model. -
This paper summarizes a collaborative industry study to compare observations between shale-play data sets and basins, develop general insights into parent/child interactions, and provide customized economic optimization recommendations.

New studies are a reminder that the effort to identify, classify, and nullify frac hits remains paramount to the future of the unconventionals business.
-
North Dakota's EERC argues that the suboptimal frac jobs of yesterday explain why fracture interactions boost production in the tight-oil play.
-
Thailand's coal mining giant Banpu said it has signed an agreement to launch a third carbon capture and sequestration project in the US.
-
Decades of experience injecting fluids into the ground has revealed a fundamental truth: No two injection sites are the same. A thorough understanding of site-specific conditions is essential to ensure safe and secure long-term subsurface disposal of carbon dioxide.

The transaction will add significant high-quality inventory offset to Permian Resources’ existing core acreage in New Mexico.
-
The acquisition of Crestwood Equity Partners extends Energy Transfer’s position deeper into the Williston and Permian basins and provides entry into the Powder River Basin.
