This case study describes how edge computing and industrial internet of things platforms were deployed to automate and optimize production operations across four distinct basins.
Output is rising fast in the South American shale play and putting Argentina on a course to soon reach 1 million B/D.
This case study presents a procedure in which the operator compared production from wells with adjusted wettability to a control group, finding that the adjustments resulted in significant improvements in production and reductions in produced water.

This study presents the development of a novel modeling tool designed to predict condensate emulsions, focusing on key factors causing emulsions such as pH, solid content, asphaltene concentration, droplet size, and organic acids.
-
This study explores enhancing gas production through a novel combination of prestimulation using a coiled tubing unit and high-rate matrix acidizing.
-
This work introduces a fast, methodical approach to detect liquid loading using easily available field data while avoiding traditional assumptions and to determine critical gas rates directly from field data.
