This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of autonomous scale-management strategies implemented in the Buzios Field that eliminate the need for a well-service stimulation vessel by using existing facilities onboard the well rig.
This study presents applications involving the use of calcium carbonate particles for conformance improvement for CO2 water-alternating-gas injection in the operator’s Permian enhanced-oil-recovery projects.
Case studies from Devon Energy, ConocoPhillips, and others show how clever engineering and technology are being used to improve recovery and asset value.
