Unwanted water production can erode well performance and asset economics if left unmanaged. Interwell’s precision water shutoff approach, grounded in diagnostics and engineered isolation, helps operators identify water-entry points, protect hydrocarbon flow, and restore sustainable well performance in mature and complex wells.
More than 150 researchers will work on the Libra Rocks project, which aims to unlock insights that could improve recovery and reservoir management in one of Brazil’s largest offshore oil fields.

The Permian Basin operator said the purchase translates to more than a decade of additional inventory. -
In this first part of a two-part series, we look at how the artificial-lift sector has adapted to producing unconventional resources. The second part of the series to publish in November will crack open the lift toolbox to take a deeper look at the techniques and technologies under development or new to the market.

The paper presents successful field tests designed to decrease electrical-submersible-pump cooling rates by inducing controlled deadheads rather than shutting down the pumps.

Founded by former analytics experts for a large US independent, Xecta Digital Labs is proposing a new analysis method for horizontal wells. Adopting it means turning the page on some old habits.

This paper presents agile technologies that integrate data management, data-quality assessment, and predictive machine learning to maximize asset value using underused legacy core data.
-
The authors write that child-well performance increases with spacing and decreases with infill timing and that the parent cumulative production at child-well completion is an effective indicator of child-well performance.

The paper presents results of single-phase and multiphase electrical-submersible-pump tests as well as operation data, lessons learned, and failure examples gathered over 10 years of operation in a highly viscous offshore oilfield.

The authors of this paper propose a novel approach to data-driven modeling for transient production of oil wells.

Injecting gas plus water proved more effective and less costly than gas-only injection in the Bakken.

Houston-based startup Cemvita Factory uses its hydrogen-producing microbes downhole to considerably lower the cost of hydrogen production.
