This paper studies the effect of salinity and hardness on partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide rheology in sandstones with relevance to polymer flooding models and simulations.
The traditionally Oklahoma-centric producer adds new acreage in west Texas and New Mexico through a pair of purchases.
As Africa’s top oil producer, Libya is ramping up momentum—offering 22 exploration areas and welcoming BP back to Tripoli with a major deal.

In this paper, the authors discuss what components have contributed to recent proppant-placement cost reductions and use several case studies to illustrate the potential for further cost reductions. -
This paper summarizes the performance of a polymerflooding pilot conducted in an unconsolidated sandstone reservoir in Oman.
-
This paper aims to clarify misconceptions regarding polymerflooding implementation based on theory and practice in China.

This paper illustrates a novel methodology that enabled the safe application of coiled tubing abrasive perforation to increase production in a sour horizontal extended-reach oil producer.
-
This paper presents a new real-time method to estimate stage-to-stage interference and well-to-well interference and their implications on completions efficiency.
-
Upon closing, the newly combined oil company will boast 135,000 BOE/D and hold around 15 years’ worth of drilling locations in the Permian Basin.
-
Oil companies would have to pay a premium for the hardware and services needed for rapid expansion. But is that likely?
-
As the announcement of carbon sequestration projects becomes the norm, it’s time we look at what we know from a technical angle about how these projects need to be run based on the industry’s experience with enhanced oil recovery.
-
The two companies have teamed up in an attempt to cut downhole costs with a project that aims to extract more information from reduced data-acquisition programs.
