Reservoir
As Egypt’s largest oil and gas investor, Eni is ramping up its 2026–2027 drilling campaign with new investments cross the Mediterranean offshore, Nile Delta, Western Desert, and offshore Sinai to strengthen the country’s role as a regional gas and LNG export hub.
The industry is no longer short of measurements; the real challenge is converting them into timely reservoir decisions that protect value. That challenge is becoming more urgent as the industry depends increasingly on mature fields and existing infrastructure. The selected papers show how this need is being addressed across different producing regions.
This paper presents a case study from a mature field redevelopment project where pulsed neutron logging was integrated with advanced reservoir modeling to improve the understanding of fluid-contact dynamics and optimize new horizontal well placement.

This paper presents the design and development of a prototype intelligent water-injection and smart allocation tool aimed at achieving autonomous waterflood operations. -
Traditional oil extraction methods hit a snag in noncontiguous fields, where conventional flow-based EOR techniques falter. In southwest Texas, a producer faced imminent shutdown of its canyon sand field due to rapid production decline. Field tests using elastic-wave EOR determined whether the field could be revitalized or if a costly shut-in process was inevitable.

This paper describes a foamed cement solution designed and implemented to cement shallow intermediate casing strings in a heavy oil play in Northeast Alberta.
-
This paper describes the engineering design and operational execution practices that supported setting of a new extended-reach world record in a mature carbonate field offshore Abu Dhabi.
-
This paper describes development-plan optimization and a probabilistic uncertainty study using Latin hypercube experimental design constrained to production performance in a deepwater Gulf of Mexico field.
-
The Midland-based service company operates a fleet that is now 65% either dual-fuel or electric-powered.
-
The US upstream sector began 2024 with $51 billion in mergers and acquisitions though Enverus outlines why the dealmaking may slow down.
-
The index integrates three independent components extracted from static and dynamic parameters: reservoir permeability thickness, movable gas, and reservoir pressure from a historically matched dynamic model.
-
If optimized to scale, fast fission reactors could play a role in reducing emissions in field operations by producing carbon-free electricity.
-
Oil production from thin-oil-rim fields can be a challenge considering early gas breakthrough and high gas/oil ratio. This study evaluates the performance of autonomous inflow control valves (in comparison with inflow control devices and sand screens) and their effectiveness in improved oil recovery in such fields.
