Unconventional/complex reservoirs
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.

Turnwell said it achieved a new well delivery time as it begins a massive contract to develop the UAE’s unconventional gas resources. -
A novel approach uses the heart-shaped signal in low-frequency distributed acoustic sensing measurements to estimate the hydraulic fracture tip distance before the hydraulic fracture intersects the monitor well, offering critical insight into the characterization of hydraulic fracture propagation.
-
At SPE’s Permian Basin Energy Conference, operators shared behind-the-scenes details on innovations such as drilling horseshoe wells and trimulfrac completions along with in-basin challenges such as handling produced water.
-
Operator acquiring oil-weighted New Mexico assets of both Franklin Mountain Energy and Avant Natural Resources.
-
The Denver-based independent is boosting its position in the Canadian shale play by 109,000 net acres, and about 70,000 BOE/D.
-
This paper presents a specialized workflow that aims to quantify the severity of condensate banking and subsequently optimize reservoir development strategies for a deep formation in the Permian Basin.
-
This paper describes numerical modeling studies of fracture-driven interactions using a coupled hydraulic-fracturing-propagation, reservoir-flow, and geomechanics tool.
-
This case study outlines a methodology to optimize and control hydraulic fracturing parameters by achieving 100% cluster efficiency and overcoming formation leak-off.
-
Machine learning and a decade of gas composition records helped the operator identify wells that were most likely to produce paraffins.
-
The third quarter marked the first reporting period that two publicly traded US oil and gas companies did not combine since 2022.
