Unconventional/complex reservoirs
Conflict‑driven price gains may be offset by higher costs, supply‑chain risks, and a limited appetite for new drilling activity.
This paper introduces a novel steam-sensitive flow-control device designed to restrict the production of steam and low-subcool liquids while allowing higher mobility of oil-phase fluids.
This paper demonstrates how the integration of multiphysics downhole imaging with machine-learning techniques provides a significant advance in perforation-erosion analysis.
-
This work demonstrates that a carefully engineered wireline perforation strategy can address the challenges of long-interval high-pressure/high-temperature completions with large intrareservoir-pressure differentials safely and effectively. -
This paper provides an account of the design, implementation, and operational insights from an enhanced geothermal system proppant stimulation targeting a volcanic, dry rock setting with an approximately 330°C bottomhole temperature.
-
Oman is embarking on a renewed effort to deploy the latest hydraulic fracturing technologies and techniques, tailored to its unique reservoirs and challenges.
-
This study evaluates the feasibility of drilling a closed-loop, unconventional geothermal system in the Pannonian Basin basement of Romania.
-
This paper describes modeling work performed to design fracturing treatment and spacing for wells in the Project Cape enhanced geothermal system in Utah.
-
With the Vaca Muerta home to some of the world’s most-productive wells, and the Permian still going strong, if increasingly gassier, Rystad sees shale as resilient.
-
The agreement follows the discovery of 724 million BOE in unconventional oil and gas reserves in November.
-
The purchase includes approximately 260 producing wells and expands Caturus’ footprint in the Eagle Ford and Austin Chalk.
-
The asset sale to an undisclosed buyer includes 360,000 net acres in Oklahoma.
-
This study reveals how production-induced depletion and geomechanical stress changes influence child-well performance in the Midland Basin, combining coupled simulations and machine learning to guide optimal well spacing, timing, and placement for infill development.
