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 paper investigates estimation of optimal design variables that maximize net present value for life-cycle production optimization during a single-well CO2 huff ‘n’ puff process in unconventional oil reservoirs. -
Unconventional resource exploitation has three key technology and application focus areas—increasing implementation of fracture diagnostics, enhancing production and recovery from new well completions as well as existing wells through improved stimulation and restimulation design and execution quality, and developing enhanced oil recovery methods.
-
This paper illustrates efforts undertaken to evaluate high-viscosity friction reducers and crosslinked gel products, their successful field application, and the importance of maintaining an effective field/laboratory/field cycle.
-
A study of a limited number of decommissioned oil and gas wells in England found no evidence of methane leaks, including four wells found to be leaking in an earlier study.
-
Whitecap enters into the liquids-rich Duvernay play, including 74,000 acres with more than 250 identified drilling locations.
