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.

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.
-
In this study, the application of electrical resistance heating on multilateral wells is studied to illustrate the enhanced physical and economic benefits of the method.
