Reservoir
Two new US Department of Energy funding programs focus on improving shale recovery, mitigating produced-water risks, managing sour gas, and enhancing facility efficiency.
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.
