Unconventional/complex reservoirs
Industry leaders champion collaborative solutions as essential for overcoming fracturing limitations.
Regional pore-pressure variations in the Leonardian- and Wolfcampian-age producing strata in the Midland and Delaware basins are studied using a variety of subsurface data.
The main goal of this research work was to determine subseismic faults and fracture corridors and their characteristics, including density and orientation, for a Paleocene fractured carbonate reservoir.

The challenge of sustaining shale production is growing larger. -
Calgary's Strathcona Resources is adding 35,000 BOE/D in a deal that will boost its total output to 185,000 BOE/D.

This paper describes treatment of deep gas wells experiencing halite deposition by installation of a velocity string that creates synergy between gas-well deliquefication and halite management.
-
This paper describes a customized solution using a thixotropic organically crosslinked polymer as a treatment design for a subhydrostatic and highly aromatic offshore gas well.

Part 3 of this series looks at the importance of performance analysis and how to generate the economic benefit for solving conformance or sweep efficiency problems. The economic elements of this review are very basic, but they will help you to determine a more-accurate understanding of the true economic benefit.

This paper proposes a multidomain approach to tackle petrophysical and geomechanical aspects of a fracture system governing the carbonate layer of an exploration well in Kuwait to assess producibility and qualification for stimulation.
-
This paper proposes a data-driven proxy model to effectively forecast the production of horizontal wells with complex fracture networks in shales.
