Unconventional/complex reservoirs
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 study integrates laboratory testing with reservoir simulation to evaluate the effectiveness of autonomous inflow-control valves in managing late-life steam-assisted gravity-drainage production challenges.
-
The objective of this study is to conduct a comprehensive review of the latest technologies and work flows developed for heavy oil reservoir management.
-
The Calgary-based shale producer said the deal involves at least 600 new well locations that will keep it drilling for the next 20 years.
-
The acquisition will enable Energy Transfer to send more barrels of Permian crude to oil hub at Cushing, Oklahoma.
-
From refracturing old wells to ones that don’t have to be fractured at all, notable producers argue that experiments are paying off.
-
The authors of this paper present results of a study that examined formation-damage mechanisms caused by drilling fluids in tight reservoirs in onshore oil fields in Abu Dhabi.
-
The authors of this paper discuss a biosurfactant treatment that offers an economical method for remediation of formation damage caused by high-molecular-weight paraffin wax deposition in porous media.
-
The UK company will purchase oil producing acreage across the northern part of the south Texas Eagle Ford shale play.
-
Rate transient analysis has been challenged in every sense of the word when it comes to tight reservoirs. An ongoing joint industry project aims to turn that around.
-
The authors of this paper introduce a physics-based method for explicit pore-pressure prediction in naturally fractured shale petroleum reservoirs.
-
The authors of this paper aim to identify the effect of various geologic controls on hydrocarbon maturation in the Delaware Basin by restoring regional cross sections and performing simulations of organic-matter maturity.
