Investment research firm TSCS reports that 60 to 65% of the highest-quality acreage in the Permian Basin, the most productive US shale basin, has already been drilled. The firm also estimates that only 3 to 4 years of Tier 1 premium inventory remains at the current drilling rate. This is driving industry-wide strategy shifts as companies move to lower tier and specula…
This paper aims to establish a set of best practices for generating particle-size-distribution data from core samples.
By integrating experimental and mathematical modeling approaches, this work aims to advance the understanding of sand-detachment dynamics and formation instability under varying saturation conditions.

This paper describes the implementation of a one-way wave equation in slowness domain outputting gathers up to Nyquist frequency, which can be used to generate high-resolution seismic sections and amplitude-vs.-offset studies.
-
This paper presents a self-supervised approach for training a seismic foundation model and demonstrates scenarios in which it is used for seismic data conditioning, interpretation, and inversion through six real-use cases.
-
This paper provides an overview of an operator’s application of 4D time-lapse seismic technology over approximately a decade and includes future perspectives.
-
Seismic technology continues to progress at a remarkable pace, driven by advances in artificial intelligence, imaging, interpretation, monitoring, and the expansion of seismic applications across the wider energy sector. One clear trend is the industry’s move toward high-frequency and ultrahigh-resolution seismic, which has pushed the limits of what can be resolved in…

This paper describes rock-compressibility correlations for carbonated naturally fractured reservoirs in Mexico that considers a range of important geological and dynamic aspects.
-
A final investment decision is also expected by the end of the year for the company’s first low-carbon data center project.

Malampaya East discovery is estimated to hold 98 Bcf of gas and may help offset declines at the country’s only producing gas field.
-
The acquisition adds 2.1 Bcf/D of production and pipeline infrastructure in Texas and Louisiana.
