Reservoir
The technology has passed its first phase of qualification, with 84 nodes placed on the seafloor at a depth of 2,000 m to acquire 4D seismic data in the pre-salt Santos Basin.
Chevron and Halliburton describe how they built and deployed the fully autonomous closed-loop fracturing system that enables subsurface-driven optimization.
This article from the SPE Integrated Reservoir Management Technical Section (IRMTS) addresses decision timing across the reservoir cycle.

The authors describe the applicability of 110,000-psi yield-strength quench-and-tempered coiled tubing strings in high-pressure sour environments through implementation of a custom-fit coiled tubing integrity and risk-mitigation program.
-
In this paper, the authors discuss what components have contributed to recent proppant-placement cost reductions and use several case studies to illustrate the potential for further cost reductions.

This paper summarizes the performance of a polymerflooding pilot conducted in an unconsolidated sandstone reservoir in Oman.
-
This paper aims to clarify misconceptions regarding polymerflooding implementation based on theory and practice in China.
-
It is pleasantly surprising to find a revival in sandstone acidizing. For many years, sandstone acidizing was becoming almost a lost art, overshadowed by carbonate acidizing and hydraulic fracturing.
-
This paper illustrates a novel methodology that enabled the safe application of coiled tubing abrasive perforation to increase production in a sour horizontal extended-reach oil producer.
-
This paper presents a new real-time method to estimate stage-to-stage interference and well-to-well interference and their implications on completions efficiency.

Upon closing, the newly combined oil company will boast 135,000 BOE/D and hold around 15 years’ worth of drilling locations in the Permian Basin.

Oil companies would have to pay a premium for the hardware and services needed for rapid expansion. But is that likely?
