A data-driven look at fuel savings, battery degradation, and net CO2 impact over a 10-year ownership period.
In an industry that rarely slows down, memory can be a powerful engineering tool. Not in terms of nostalgia, but in perspective. Many of the activities that constituted daily operations have been so deeply transformed that new generations of engineers may never have experienced them before.
A smart safety helmet with physiological monitoring, gas detection, and real-time location tracking for emergencies was the winning concept at this year's SPE Students Technical Symposium and Exhibition.

A generic, multi-purpose reservoir simulator is a tool that every petroleum engineering graduate should have in his or her arsenal. This article overviews the main features a basic reservoir simulation program combines, all doable through a few hundred lines-of-code, regardless of the preferred coding language.

SPE is accepting applications for its annual Energy Startup Competition. The deadline for applications is 2 July.
-
Fourteen technologies from 14 companies around the world were selected, including five companies receiving small business recognition.
-
To develop improved predictive models of complex real-world problems, one needs to pursue a balanced perspective. Ultimately, the physics we know needs to rely on data to unmask the physics that we do not yet know.

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.
