Reservoir
The technology has passed its first phase of qualification, with 84 nodes placed on the seafloor at a depth of 2,000 m to acquire 4D seismic data in the pre-salt Santos Basin.
Chevron and Halliburton describe how they built and deployed the fully autonomous closed-loop fracturing system that enables subsurface-driven optimization.
This article from the SPE Integrated Reservoir Management Technical Section (IRMTS) addresses decision timing across the reservoir cycle.
