Unwanted water production can erode well performance and asset economics if left unmanaged. Interwell’s precision water shutoff approach, grounded in diagnostics and engineered isolation, helps operators identify water-entry points, protect hydrocarbon flow, and restore sustainable well performance in mature and complex wells.
The Middle East’s largest unconventional gas development officially begins production as Saudi Aramco targets 6 million BOE/D of gas and liquids capacity by 2030.
