Unconventional/complex reservoirs
The events will be co-located 3–5 May 2027 at Reliant Park in Houston, Texas.
This paper presents a novel approach to predict reservoir porosity by conditioning seismic data, calibrating seismic impedance inversion, and tailoring rock-physics analysis.
This paper presents findings reinforcing the argument that acid fracturing is a strong alternative stimulation method to improve productivity in the Austin Chalk formation.
-
Incremental gains are not always celebrated, but as two of the biggest oil producers in the US show, they nonetheless can net unrealized savings and new efficiencies. -
The combined company will have a strengthened position in the Permian Basin, and plans to operate 17 hydraulic fracturing fleets in the region.
-
Thousands of horizontal wells that had been drilled but uncompleted (DUCs) offered a way to maintain production without the cost of drilling more wells, but that resource is finally running low.
-
The third quarter has so far not seen any mergers and acquisitions in the shale business that top $1 billion.
-
The paper aims to determine the mechanisms of fracturing interference with multiwell pads in shale gas reservoirs and evaluate the effect of interwell fracturing interference on production.
-
This paper reviews innovations and technologies used to make the Atlanta field in the Santos Basin a successful case of heavy-oil production in ultradeep water.
-
The authors write that cyclic gas injection enhanced oil recovery for Eagle Ford volatile oil can yield substantial increases in estimated ultimate recovery.
-
A fast-moving pressure pulse is the priority of a research and development initiative that, if successful, will result in a new diagnostic technology for horizontal wells in tight reservoirs.
-
This paper describes an artificial-lift technology, a subsurface compressor system, that simultaneously removes liquids, increases gas production, and improves recoverable reserves in gas wells.
-
A 2-year study of a formation used for saltwater disposal in the Bakken may hold promise of decreasing the pressurization of the formation and increasing the reuse of the briny produced water.
