The produced water conundrum in the Permian Basin will be solved by a mix of recycling, disposal, and future breakthroughs in technology currently being studied.

The authors write that simple changes in drillstring design can lead to huge savings in a climate that demands continual reductions in well-delivery time and well costs.

Nabors' RZR-equipped rig has successfully drilled multiple horizontal wells in the Permian Basin.

The Permian Basin operator said the purchase ‘checks all the boxes’ it looks for in an acquisition.

Large geological models are needed for modeling the subsurface processes in geothermal, carbon-storage, and hydrocarbon reservoirs. The size of these models contributes to the computational cost of history matching, engineering optimization, and forecasting. To reduce this cost, low-dimensional representations need to be extracted. Deep-learning tools, such as autoenc…

Seven facilities design and public engagement principles are identified as key elements for the future oil and natural gas production facilities for the DJ Basin, and maybe even as a guide for other North American onshore shale basins.

The deal upon closing at year-end would expand Marathon’s position in the south Texas shale play by 130,000 net acres.

This paper presents a numerical simulation work flow, with emphasis on hydraulic fracture simulation, that optimizes well spacing and completion design simultaneously.

Recent studies have reignited the question of whether US oil and gas companies are ignoring the opportunity to refracture large swaths of maturing assets.

This paper describes the deployment of an ultradeep electromagnetic directional-resistivity instrument to map injection-water movement.
