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.

Chevron has some new ideas on how to get more oil for less cost out of shale wells in their early years. -
Casing deformations are common in the south-west shale regions of China and the Middle East, where the widespread use of 5.5-in., 26- and 26.8-lb/ft casing is the norm. In these regions, the majority of frac plugs are designed with an outer diameter (OD) of 4.055 in. or slightly larger, which frequently encounter restrictions resulting in the loss of bottomhole assemb…

The authors of this paper propose an artificial-intelligence-assisted work flow that uses machine-learning techniques to identify sweet spots in carbonate reservoirs.

The authors of this paper describe a seismic reprocessing campaign for an Egyptian oil field that had yielded poor seismic data.

In this paper, the effect of cold-water injection on pressure transient analysis (PTA) of geothermal reservoirs is studied by varying the temperature of the injected cold water from room temperature to reservoir temperature.

This paper describes a method with multitiered analysis to leverage machine-learning techniques to process passive seismic monitoring data, pumping and injection pressure, and rate for fracture and fault analysis.

This paper describes an effort to use multiple technologies to better understand an Arkoma Basin reservoir and the interdisciplinary relationship between the reservoir’s subsurface hazards and a stimulation treatment.

The main objective of this paper is to investigate the relationship between strain change and pressure change under various fractured reservoir conditions to better estimate conductive fractures and pressure profiles.
