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.

Russia’s Gazprom Neft Technologies is partnering with France’s SNF, the world’s largest maker of polyacrylamide, a polymer widely used in Chemical EOR. They aim to develop demand for chemical flooding technologies throughout Siberia. -
The two-well stimulation approach is delivering big savings to first adopters. A new report from Rystad highlights how the development is taking shape.

An openhole advanced formation-evaluation approach is presented that enables assessment of tight-matrix and natural-fracture systems at a level not previously accomplished.
-
The authors develop an innovative machine-learning method to determine salt structures directly from gravity data.
-
An appropriate work flow of combining suitable advanced technologies can help to overcome the long-standing challenges of sub-basalt imaging.

The interpretation of well tests, combined with petrophysical analysis, formation-test data, and production logs, provided insight into Khuff reservoirs.
-
Most of today’s equipment and interpretation methods are indeed not new. After all, well testing has been around for nearly a century, resulting in a legacy that may not always look cutting-edge, but these tried-and-true tools were so technologically remarkable that they became staples.
-
The paper outlines examples from tight gas reservoirs in two fields in which openhole data was unavailable and petrophysical analysis was undertaken using cased-hole data.
-
The papers explore innovative approaches developed by authors of SPE conference papers toward avoiding data bias, working around the absence of openhole data, and reducing the uncertainty of mass-transport complexes.
