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 US Department of Energy’s Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management awarded a total of $600,000 to four software developers who won a contest to support FECM’s Science-Informed Machine Learning to Accelerate Real-Time Decisions in the Subsurface Initiative.

Incremental gains are not always celebrated, but as two of the biggest oil producers in the US show, they nonetheless can net unrealized savings and new efficiencies.

The combined company will have a strengthened position in the Permian Basin, and plans to operate 17 hydraulic fracturing fleets in the region.
-
Thousands of horizontal wells that had been drilled but uncompleted (DUCs) offered a way to maintain production without the cost of drilling more wells, but that resource is finally running low.
-
The third quarter has so far not seen any mergers and acquisitions in the shale business that top $1 billion.
-
The application of an extended-release scale-inhibitor in approximately 70 vertical conventional wells in the Permian Basin has shown approximately three times better performance compared to the incumbent chemical.
-
The paper aims to determine the mechanisms of fracturing interference with multiwell pads in shale gas reservoirs and evaluate the effect of interwell fracturing interference on production.
-
The authors outline a case study involving the integration of static measurements to improve understanding of reservoir properties and support more-accurate reservoir evaluation.
-
The authors develop a representative geostatistically based 3D model that preserves geological elements and eliminates uncertainty of reservoir properties and volumetric estimates for a Libyan field.

The authors examine a theory that low resistivity in a Chinese reservoir is caused by bound water trapped in clay minerals and develop an improved model for production prediction of offset wells.
