Reservoir
The latest merger and acquisition report from Enverus Intelligence Research shows deal value fell 21% quarter over quarter.
This paper studies the effect of salinity and hardness on partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide rheology in sandstones with relevance to polymer flooding models and simulations.
The traditionally Oklahoma-centric producer adds new acreage in west Texas and New Mexico through a pair of purchases.

This paper presents a step-by-step work flow to facilitate history matching numerical simulation models of hydraulically fractured shale wells. -
The water-shutoff technique is used in some wells of the U reservoir in the Iro field of the Oriente Basin in Ecuador to restore production after an early water breakthrough. This paper compares the production historical data, workovers, and sand-body correlation of wells to understand reservoir behavior, shale-baffle-sealing continuity, the existence of different san…

One should recall that statistics predict oil will continue to be the main source of energy for the next 2 decades, with heavy oil constituting a great portion of that. That means that, while the oil industry is going through unprecedented and even unpredictable economic downturns, the status of heavy oil is still unquestionable.
-
The authors demonstrate that alternating injection of polymer and water is effective and economical for heavy oil fields, even offshore.

A pilot project validates the use of an advanced polymerflooding technology on the Alaska North Slope.

This paper outlines an approach to history matching that uses artificial intelligence with an artificial neural network and data-driven analytics. The approach has been used to mitigate history-matching challenges in a mature, highly geologically complex field offshore Malaysia.

A study of a field case concludes that well spacing can be optimized by combing the information extracted from uncertainty and the interpolated maximum net present value.

Oil prices are up and so is the outlook for companies at the heart of the US unconventional oil sector, but they still have their concerns.
-
The Norwegian Petroleum Directorate and Equinor have announced the biggest discovery so far this year on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. Three wildcat wells drilled in the Blasto prospect near the Fram field confirmed the find and were then permanently plugged and abandoned.

Emerging three-axis microgravity technology has the potential to provide reservoir information not obtainable from other forms of data acquisition
