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.

The newly formed SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technical Section is working on a project to identify a set of best practices for completions engineers. Once completed, they will be accessible to the entire SPE technical community. -
Mixing dry polymer powder and water to make friction reducer as needed during fracturing can cut the cost of the additive and the testing of whether a drastically simplified recipe performs as well as more-complex mixes.
-
This paper analyzes several configurations of convolutional neural networks suited for predicting upscaled fracture permeabilities and shape factors required to close a dual porosity/dual permeability model.
-
The authors write that simple and straightforward observations on outcrops can be used to build 3D models that mimic geological relationships accurately.
-
In this study, the authors show that high-temperature, high-salinity polymers can exhibit low adsorption and retention in carbonate reservoir rock at ultrahigh salinity conditions.
-
In this paper, a complete safety-management approach and a contingency plan are developed for carbon dioxide waterless fracturing operations.
-
This paper presents an integrated work flow to model mechanical properties at sufficiently high resolution to honor accurately rock fabric and its effects on height and complexity and, thus, production.

The utility of mud gas data so far has been limited to fluid typing, formation evaluation, and interwell geological and petrophysical correlation. The ongoing digital transformation has presented the opportunity to increase the utility of, and get more value from, the abundant and rich mud gas data. This article raises the question of whether getting more from mud gas…

The US producer also closed its acquisition of assets in the Permian through a deal with Primexx.

The gas-focused producer said it will turn its attention to drilling programs on its Haynesville acreage.
