Reservoir
The US Department of Energy and Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection will convert a horizontal Utica Shale gas well into an enhanced geothermal system. Building directly on horizontal drilling and completion practices developed in the Utica, the project will include evaluation of optimal well orientation, lateral placement, and spacing.
An asset swap with PDVSA helps consolidate the supermajor’s heavy-oil operations in the country.
Co-owner Chevron confirmed the find at the Bandit prospect offshore Louisiana and suggested it may become a subsea tieback to existing faciltiies operated by Occidental Petroleum.

The authors develop a collocated finite-volume method to study induced seismicity as a result of pore-pressure fluctuations. -
This paper describes the application of a synthetic seismic-catalog-generation method followed by application of a neural network on a seismic data set for an oil-producing field in the North Sea.

This paper describes an integrated work flow developed for 3D seismic reservoir characterization of deep and thin layers without sufficient well data in a South China Sea formation.
-
The author writes that careful calibration of a common, simple rock physics model can provide valuable insights into reservoir and seal elastic properties.
-
Two well-test logging operations have been carried out for the first time in a conventional carbonate reservoir in safe operating conditions and with repeatable results.
-
The past couple of years has been a rollercoaster for energy professionals, but it did not stop the incredible achievements in machine-learning (ML) techniques, particularly neural networks to improve seismic imaging.

SponsoredImprove decision making and reduce the uncertainty of CCS projects with accurate, detailed subsurface insights that help you estimate storage capacity, run play chance mapping, improve your injection strategy, and simulate carbon plumes over time.
-
Drilling is set to take place near the location where the Toyko-based energy company said it encountered a gas reservoir in a 2016 project.
-
You know about upstream, midstream, and downstream. Now, get ready for the coming age of "counterstream" which will leverage many of the industry's existing engineering skillsets.
