Average output reached 13.6 million BOPD, extending a period of sustained growth that has kept the US at the forefront of global oil production.
A report commissioned by Havtil, the Norwegian Ocean Industry Authority, calls for better dialogue regarding pore-pressure uncertainty and higher-end drilling techniques like managed pressure drilling as methods to reduce the risk of well-control events.
The events will be co-located 3–5 May 2027 at Reliant Park in Houston, Texas.

The paper presents results of single-phase and multiphase electrical-submersible-pump tests as well as operation data, lessons learned, and failure examples gathered over 10 years of operation in a highly viscous offshore oilfield. -
The authors of this paper propose a novel approach to data-driven modeling for transient production of oil wells.

Injecting gas plus water proved more effective and less costly than gas-only injection in the Bakken.

Houston-based startup Cemvita Factory uses its hydrogen-producing microbes downhole to considerably lower the cost of hydrogen production.

Digital systems are helping ensure US independent Diversified Energy continues to grow and optimize production from its mature assets.
-
The Sydney-based company announced it will also seek to exit all of its upstream permits with the exception of its major LNG joint venture.
-
ADNOC awarded a new round of contracts to international service companies, intending to apply directional drilling and LWD to boost production by getting a better assessment of its reservoirs.
-
When Occidental Resources switched to bigger fracture designs to produce more oil, it produced more water as well. Based on research done since, they cannot have one without the other, and at the oil prices recently seen, that’s OK.
-
The authors of this paper develop an assay method to determine effective scale-inhibitor concentration.
