The UAE project is expected to produce up to 345 MMscf/D by 2029, with expansion potential to 1 Bcf/D.
This study investigates the potential for in-situ hydrogen generation from hydrocarbons using in-situ combustion, with particular emphasis on the role of kerogen content and heating mode.
This paper presents the application of degradable particulate-diverter technology to improve oil production by effectively diverting stimulation treatment fluids away from high-water-cut, high-permeability, high-temperature producing intervals or zones.

The 16-MW solar facility in Ector County, Texas, near Odessa, powers the Goldsmith field through deployment of 174,000 photovoltaic panels. -
The types of advancements made in real-time drilling data acquisition and processing are now on the doorstep of the North American completions sector. Technology developers are banding together under the umbrella of “coopetition” in a bid to change the way producers fracture tight reservoirs.

Well spacing optimization is one of the more important considerations in unconventional field development.
-
The authors examine methods of adopting an aggressive approach to optimizing stimulation design to lower the break-even level of operations and evaluate the results.
-
This paper reviews the IOR/EOR technologies currently being applied to unconventional oil reservoirs.
-
The authors present a novel data-driven tool for fast fracture identification in post-stack seismic data sets.
