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.

Large volumes of gas can be produced at high rates with conventional horizontal- or vertical-well configurations for long periods of time from some methane-hydrate accumulations by means of depressurization-induced dissociation. -
As oil companies have moved to more-marginal reservoir targets, application of conventional techniques has often yielded disappointing results, and tighter zones are often abandoned for more-promising target intervals.

A successful field trial in which foam was used as a gas-injection conformance enhancer was implemented in the Cusiana field in Colombia.

A number of hurdles need to be overcome to reach a successful action/reaction, problem-free status in EOR operations.

The Diatomite reservoir in the Belridge field, California, has been under pressure-maintenance water injection to mitigate reservoir compaction and improve oil recovery.
-
To increase the oil recovery in the Albacora field, significant water injection is required that was not considered in the initial project-development phases.

The rapid growth in the development of unconventional shale resources has changed business-as-usual for onshore production equipment manufacturers and suppliers.

Enhanced oil recovery processes, particularly offshore, create challenges for produced water treatment. This option reviews technology options and current applications.

This paper describes an all-in-one system that combines nodal-analysis and numerical-simulation models to calculate the effect of intelligent-completion components—such as swell packers, internal control valves, and inflow-control devices—on lateral production profiles.

The Kitan oil field consists of three subsea intelligent wells. The intelligent completions were modeled in detail using commercial dynamic-simulation software to establish a sound and safe operating procedure for the well cleanup and well test.
