Saipem's center includes a full-scale simulator designed to replicate real operational scenarios to deliver an immersive training experience.
EZOps will integrate its Mobile Oilfield Management platform into the college’s energy technology program, giving students hands-on experience with digital tools used in modern oilfield operations.
The software will enhance education and research across energy, geothermal, mining, and geotechnical engineering by giving students and faculty hands-on access to industry-standard tools used worldwide.

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.

If a well is accurately placed in a hydrocarbon production zone the first time, there is less risk to personnel, less impact to the environment, and a better return over the life of the well for the operator.

Highly deviated wells are frequently drilled for oil and gas production, but the Utah FORGE team is set to tackle this challenge while drilling a geothermal well in hot, hard crystalline granite.
-
Competency in human factors is all too often focused on frontline operators, and the importance of human-factors skills among other groups is unappreciated. To be truly effective, human-factors principles have to be implemented throughout an organization.
-
Wellbore tortuosity is a term that has steadily increased in relevance to the oil and gas industry over the past decade, but its importance is especially clear in the current environment.
