Coreflood experiments reveal that alkali significantly reduces viscosity loss in polyacrylamide flooding systems by minimizing adsorption and improving polymer stability under shear stress. The findings position viscosity retention as a key screening criterion for successful alkali-polymer enhanced-oil-recovery applications.
This SPE technical section editorial synthesizes six technical themes shaping CO2 transport and storage and interprets them through a petroleum engineering capability lens.
The UAE project is expected to produce up to 345 MMscf/D by 2029, with expansion potential to 1 Bcf/D.

The project aims to reimage a 6,400-km2 seismic data set near the recently discovered Baleine field.
-
The latest deal from Denver-based Civitas Resources brings its spending total this year to almost $7 billion.
-
The authors of this paper describe a procedure that enables fast reconstruction of the entire production data set with multiple missing sections in different variables.
-
This paper presents a physics-assisted deep-learning model to facilitate transfer learning in unconventional reservoirs by integrating the complementary strengths of physics-based and data-driven predictive models.
-
The authors of this paper present an artificial-lift timing and selection work flow using a hybrid data-driven and physics-based approach that incorporates routinely available pressure/volume/temperature, rate, and pressure information.
-
This paper focuses on characterization of fracture hits in the Eagle Ford, methods to predict their effects on production, and mitigation techniques.
-
As production dynamics evolve over the full life cycle of a tight-oil play, a single artificial lift method may not be the most cost-effective solution.

SponsoredWhat are we, in the upstream oilfield service companies, doing about it? The Middle East upstream oil and gas industry is shifting its focus to unconventional and tight-gas resource development.
-
The natural fractures discovered on Mars during rover missions might be so important that they are worth bringing back to Earth.
