Unconventional/complex reservoirs
Casing deformation has emerged as a major challenge in China’s unconventional oil and gas fields, prompting the development of new solutions to address the issue.
The US supermajor is using one of its lowest-value hydrocarbon products to generate double-digit production increases in its most prolific US asset.
The transaction adds 267,000 net acres and nearly 140,000 BOE/D from Vital Energy, lifting Crescent into the top 10 largest US independents.
