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 documents the testing, integration, and field deployment of a metal expandable packer used as an openhole toe isolation plug in a deepwater well under high-pressure, high-temperature conditions.

Today’s advancements in unconventional technology are worth marveling over, but there is still plenty of room for growth.
-
This paper presents a literature review to determine the engineering challenges and opportunities presented by CBM production in China.

Saudi Aramco is tapping Halliburton’s expertise in developing unconventional resources to increase domestic gas production, a pillar of its long-term strategy.
-
Wells are starting to come on stronger than expected, which is putting a new emphasis on orginizing all the other ingredients needed for shale production: more rigs, roads, pipelines, water, and sand.
-
The complete paper proposes an azimuthal plane-wave-destruction (AzPWD) seismic-diffraction-imaging work flow to efficiently emphasize small-scale features associated with subsurface discontinuities such as faults, channel edges, and fracture swarms.

Overcoming numerous regulatory hurdles, Cuadrilla Resources is pressing ahead with its plans to fracture a well in the UK for the first time since 2011.
-
Shale gas is one of least sustainable options for producing electricity, according to new research from The University of Manchester, which considered environmental, economic, and social sustainability factors.
