Unconventional/complex reservoirs
Viper Energy is acquiring Sitio Royalties Corp. and its more than 25,000 net acres of royalty interests across major US shale plays.
Extensive acreage overlap and existing operational collaboration drove the acquisition decision.
The authors of this paper describe a method of stimulating a multizone hydrocarbon-producing well wherein a tool is deployed downhole by wireline to generate acid vapor at a target depth, allowing each interval to be treated uniquely.
-
Bidding is open for a 563-km natural gas pipeline that will expand the country’s natural gas transport capacity by 25%. -
New automated technology is making it possible to run pressure pumps for days on end.
-
The authors describe the applicability of 110,000-psi yield-strength quench-and-tempered coiled tubing strings in high-pressure sour environments through implementation of a custom-fit coiled tubing integrity and risk-mitigation program.
-
Upon closing, the newly combined oil company will boast 135,000 BOE/D and hold around 15 years’ worth of drilling locations in the Permian Basin.
-
Oil companies would have to pay a premium for the hardware and services needed for rapid expansion. But is that likely?
-
Producers in the biggest US oil basin have signaled that they intend to seize on $100/bbl oil prices.
-
This paper summarizes the integrated technical learnings from the successful application of the installation of autonomous outflow control technology in a new long horizontal injector well.
-
This paper will cover the most-common types of horizontal multistage fracturing completion systems, with a primary focus on unconventionals.
-
New research from Hess offers compelling evidence that two layers of tight rock can be treated as one and how passive wells can become oil producers.
-
This paper describes how a better understanding of the connection between the well and the reservoir through use of fiber-optic sensors can improve reservoir simulation models, decision-making, and well-performance evaluation.
