Ranger acquires American Well Services for $90.5 million, adding 39 workover rigs and boosting its fleet by 25%.
Production from the Búzios field now tops 1 million B/D with six floating production systems in operation and more on the way.
Geophysicist Markos Sourial discusses advances in seismic imaging, the challenges of modern data processing, and what they mean for the next wave of subsurface professionals.
-
The combined company will control almost 1 million acres in the Williston Basin and daily production over 165,000 BOE/D. -
The authors discuss a production strategy in which high-gas/oil-ratio crude can be injected into the upper oil reservoirs with partial pressure depletion to achieve production enhancement and synergy among reservoirs.
-
The paper provides information to engineers for selecting high-viscosity friction reducers and describes a methodology for evaluating damage potential and proppant transport.
-
The principles behind unconventional wells lead to production profiles very different from conventional wells. High initial-production rates drop to much lower rates in a matter of months or a few years. How many in the US are currently considered low-production-rate wells?
-
The authors describe the benefits of a single-phase retarded inorganic acid system, which they write features the same benefits as emulsified acids while eliminating the drawbacks of the latter.
-
The paper presents the challenges faced and overcome while drilling and testing a high-pressure/high-temperature sour-gas well offshore in an environmentally sensitive environment.
-
This paper presents a novel sandstone-stimulation technique using thermochemical fluids.
-
This paper presents a well-integrity-management system developed for a high-pressure/high-temperature gas field in southwest China.
-
Deal expands PDC's D-J Basin holdings into northern Adams County, Colorado.
-
Rodolfo Camacho-Velázquez identifies areas of opportunity for future reservoir engineers related to the technical challenges of increased production and recovery of complex conventional and unconventional reservoirs, the application of Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies in reservoir subdisciplines, and the energy transition.
