Reservoir
This study demonstrates how routinely acquired downhole temperature data allows for direct estimation of fluid saturations and delivers more accurate reservoir volume assessments, particularly in aquifer-supported systems.

Effective data analysis depends on seeing connections that matter. Explore how Spotfire enables a more intuitive approach to understanding petroleum data.
The deal adds over 1,000 potential drilling locations and almost doubles oil production for Houston-based Magnolia.

Natural gas producers should remain happy campers for the foreseeable future; they are supplying an increasing long-term demand at an increasingly stable international market price. -
The primary objective of this study is to address all known causes of productivity declines in unconventional shale gas formations with horizontal multifractured wells and to develop a fully coupled geomechanical/flow simulation model to simulate these production conditions.

The promise of getting 30% more oil production from shale wells has set off a race by companies trying to see if they can replicate what EOG has done. But the big question is: Can it add enough oil to increase the industry’s low average recovery rate?
-
Currently, there are few studies on smart waterflooding in tight and very tight oil reservoirs. This work examines smart-waterflood opportunities in such reservoirs.
-
While enhancing oil production from multizone, hydraulically fractured completions in tight reservoirs is not straightforward, recent studies have shown that applications such as gas injection and waterflooding have the potential to create significant improvement in oil recovery.

This paper presents the performance results from one of the waterflood pilots in the Viewfield Bakken.
-
Previous studies demonstrate that Montney rock samples present a dual-wettability pore network. Recovery of the oil retained in the small hydrophobic pores is uniquely challenging.
-
Schlumberger’s new multifunction spectroscopy system builds on previous innovations to offer the first complete cased-hole formation evaluation and reservoir saturation monitoring capability that provides openhole-equivalent logging measurements.
-
Projections of future production in the Permian Basin may came up short because new wells drilled near older ones are likely to yield less.

The authors present the results of a detailed experimental study in which underlying pore-level-displacement physics of two- and three-phase flow in a fractured rock sample is investigated with high-resolution X-ray microtomography techniques.
