Well integrity/control
The technology, which uses Industrial Internet of Things components, aims to reduce the costs and improve the safety of drilling operations.
This paper investigates the effect of calcium oxide as an expansive agent on the performance of geopolymer-based sealing materials, with successful application in oil and gas wells at shallow depths.
The oil and gas industry must balance global energy demands with stricter environmental regulations, particularly in drilling, where risks and complexities are higher. Innovative technologies, like those used in this stuck-pipe scenario offshore Azerbaijan, are key to overcoming these challenges and improving safety, speed, and efficiency.
