Reservoir
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.
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 year’s selected papers showcase meaningful advances across condensate‑rich tight gas, tight sandstones, and coalbed methane reservoirs, each contributing new tools for improving predictability and field-development efficiency.

This paper highlights an approach of using active hydrogen to stimulate hard-to-recover formations from candidate-well selection through pilot execution and evaluation.
-
The authors of this paper review the advantages of machine learning in complex compositional reservoir simulations to determine fluid properties such as critical temperature and saturation pressure.
-
This work presents an integrated multiphase flow model for downhole pressure predictions that produces relatively more-accurate downhole pressure predictions under wide flowing conditions while maintaining a simple form.

This study describes a technique combining borehole acoustic reflection imaging with production logging in a horizontal well experiencing high water cut with the aim of enabling a mitigation plan.
-
The aim of this study is to address and discuss the reservoir engineering aspects of geological hydrogen storage.
-
This paper details how the reservoir modeling workflow can be accelerated, and uncertainty reduced, even for challenging greenfield prospects by constructing multiple small fit-for-purpose integrated adaptive models.
-
The authors investigate the utility of applying unconventional technology to low- or variably producing carbonate reservoirs to increase estimated ultimate recovery and decrease development-scale variability.

By acquiring Eni’s two producing shallow-water assets, Hilcorp will become the largest offshore oil producer on Alaska’s North Slope.
-
The acquisition underscores the rapid rise of the unconventional oil play in northeastern Utah that producers claim offers better margins than the Permian Basin.
