Emerging Oilfield Technologies

Disruptive digital technologies change the world, altering fundamental aspects of how we work and live. A new generation of digital technologies, enabled by blockchain, could make processes faster and create opportunities both for businesses and individuals. Blockchain-based technology could also help accelerate the energy transition.

The use of logistic growth models can provide a simple framework to evaluate CO2 storage scale-up and constrain outputs from existing energy systems models.

Data validation is not a direct out-of-the-box process and requires planning and even budgeting, but high-quality data can save your time, money, and effort.

The enthusiasm for AI practice is growing rapidly across all industries. This article gives a brief overview of AI's key elements.

The SPE Research Portal uses artificial intelligence technology, fortified by industry knowledge, to address the long-term challenges of finding and analyzing information in unstructured data.

Traditional solutions do not solve the problem of flaring. The large amount of power produced at the well pads using power generators or turbines may be utilized by heavy duty equipment or some other type of a large electric consumer—Bitcoin.

The oil industry has not treated reservoir crude oil with the same degree of rigor as it does reservoir rock formations. Reservoir fluid geodynamics is a new technical discipline that accounts for hydrocarbon compositional redistribution and phase change in reservoirs in geologic time.

If you have used the random forest algorithm, then you already have used the Ensemble Machine Learning (EML) method, probably without realizing it. This article will explain, in very simple terms, the principle behind this relatively new ML paradigm.

Water-in-oil emulsions cost millions in maintenance, reduce oil recovery, and create excess carbon. These economic and environmental burdens may finally be resolved.

The world of work is changing rapidly. Do these workforce changes truly represent a death knell for oil and gas field careers, or could they be just what we need?
