Unconventional/complex reservoirs
Argentina’s President Javier Milei met with TotalEnergies CEO Patrick Pouyanné and Eni CEO Claudio Descalzi in Paris to discuss Argentina’s energy sector, including projects linked to the Vaca Muerta shale formation and the development of the Argentina LNG export project.
Transaction adds 90,000 net acres and 68,000 BOE/D of production as Crescent expands its South Texas footprint.
This paper aims to establish a set of best practices for generating particle-size-distribution data from core samples.
-
Average output reached 13.6 million BOPD, extending a period of sustained growth that has kept the US at the forefront of global oil production. -
The events will be co-located 3–5 May 2027 at Reliant Park in Houston, Texas.
-
This case study describes how edge computing and industrial internet of things platforms were deployed to automate and optimize production operations across four distinct basins.
-
This case study presents a procedure in which the operator compared production from wells with adjusted wettability to a control group, finding that the adjustments resulted in significant improvements in production and reductions in produced water.
-
This year’s selected papers showcase meaningful advances across condensate‑rich tight gas, tight sandstone, and coalbed methane reservoirs, each contributing new tools for improving predictability and field-development efficiency.
-
This paper presents findings reinforcing the argument that acid fracturing is a strong alternative stimulation method to improve productivity in the Austin Chalk formation.
-
Output is rising fast in the South American shale play and putting Argentina on a course to soon reach 1 million B/D.
-
This paper presents a novel approach to predict reservoir porosity by conditioning seismic data, calibrating seismic impedance inversion, and tailoring rock-physics analysis.
-
This paper aims to assess the effectiveness of using advanced integrated production-data-analysis techniques for condensate-rich tight gas fields.
-
The next wave of unconventional growth will likely come from basins in Argentina, the Middle East, Australia, and elsewhere, fueled by expertise gained from shale plays in North America.
