Unconventional/complex reservoirs
The events will be co-located 3–5 May 2027 at Reliant Park in Houston, Texas.
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 study aims at understanding the effect of a surfactant known as a high-temperature emulsifying agent as an additive to the steam-assisted gravity drainage process and the possibility of forming oil-in-water emulsions. -
This paper describes the implementation of a hybrid technology of cyclic steam stimulation and foam into the heavy oil field development plans of the Middle Magdalena Valley basin in Colombia.
-
This paper’s focus is a case study of an Eagle Ford refracturing project in which a range of completion designs were trialed with an approach using offset sealed wellbore pressure monitoring and fiber-optic strain.
-
Despite tens of thousands of potential candidates and the proven upsides, the unconventional industry has largely overlooked refracturing—possibly due to the way it’s discussed.
-
SponsoredExpanding its portfolio of high-tier technologies, TAQA develops a high-performance perforation-plugging patented product.
-
This paper presents the mitigation of drilling challenges encountered in the Niger Delta through a technique that relates shale resistivity to shale porosity and vertical effective stress to predict pore pressure.
-
Devon Energy along with petroleum engineering consulting and software firm Whitson and cloud computing company Snowflake developed a system to monitor the dynamics of 5,000 wells.
-
The authors integrated azimuths and intensities recorded by fiber optics and compared them with post-flowback production-allocation and interference testing to identify areas of conductive fractures and offset-well communication.
-
The Research Council of Norway’s $118,000 grant will support development of longer fishbone laterals to raise production while lowering carbon footprints.
-
Houston-based Chord is set to see its daily output increase to a basin-leading average of 287,000 BOE/D.
