Zarate Losoya, Enrique (2022-04-11)Providing the necessary energy supply to a growing world and market is essential to support human social development in an environmentally friendly. The energy industry is undergoing a digital transformation and rapidly ...
-
Desai, Rachit keyur (2019-10-18)Cementing high-pressure/high-temperature (HP/HT) gas wells is a challenging and expensive job in the oil and gas industry. Gas migration through the cement column has major safety, environmental, and economic concerns. ...
-
Almubarak, Tariq Abdulsattar A (2021-11-15)As exploration for oil and gas continues, it becomes necessary to produce from deeper formations that have low permeability and higher temperature. Unconventional shale formations utilize slickwater fracturing fluids due ...
-
Sarmah, Abhishek (2018-11-05)Viscosified acid systems have been used for acid diversion in heterogeneous carbonate reservoirs for several decades. However, the anionic polymers used in these systems are difficult to clean post treatment, leading to ...
-
Paknejad, Amir S (2009-08-03)Every year, many wells are subject to well intervention operations for a variety of different reasons, such as Plug and Abandon (P&A) operations or well control situations. Wells that are not properly plugged, in addition ...
-
Bell, Matthew G. (2014-08-20)This paper describes a relational database system developed for the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement as part of an analysis of current cementing procedures employed in the US outer continental shelf. Initial ...
-
Udoh, Ikpoto Enefiok (2009-05-15)Verifying the design of floating structures adequately requires both numerical simulations and model testing, a combination of which is referred to as the hybrid method of design verification. The challenge in direct scaling ...
-
Shende, Aniket Vishwanath (2012-07-16)Barium sulfate scaling can cause many oilfield problems leading to loss of well productivity and well abandonment. Currently, diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) is used, along with synergist oxalic acid and potassium ...
-
Salas Safe, Jose Gregorio (Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)Drilling operations management will face hurdles to reduce costs and increase performance, and to do this with less experience and organizational drilling capacity. A technology called Drilling Simulators Software has shown ...
-
Amodu, Afolabi Ayoola (2009-05-15)Gas hydrate research in the last two decades has taken various directions ranging from ways to understand the safe and economical production of this enormous resource to drilling problems. as more rigs and production ...
-
Mendonsa, Aaron John (2016-09-30)As the industry seeks out exploration prospects in increasing water depths, the complexity of drilling in tight pore-pressure and fracture-pressure windows has become progressively more challenging. Conventional or ...
-
Jung, Jae Hun (2015-08-10)In deep water with severe environmental conditions, the Free Standing Hybrid Riser (FSHR) is suitable for high motion vessels like FPSOs (Floating Production Storage and Offloading). As the FSHR is capable of decoupling ...
-
Yuan, Zhaoguang (2012-11-15)In the life of a well, the cement sheath not only provides zonal isolation but also supports casing and increases casing-collapse resistance. Due to the high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) conditions, the cement sheath ...
-
Ivanishin, Igor (2020-12-01)Dolomitic reservoir rocks of different age, origin, and composition were analyzed using several techniques, including: powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), ...
-
Babalola, Shola Daniel (2015-10-01)Accurate wellbore collapse initiation pressure is necessary for a robust wellbore bridging study. When drilling overbalance through a porous and permeable formation, there is flow of wellbore fluid into the formation, ...
-
Giesler, Steven John (2018-07-31)Cement slurry is pumped downhole to create cement sheaths that induce zonal isolation and maintain well integrity throughout the well’s lifetime. This task is difficult to achieve due to adverse wellbore conditions and rig ...
-
Almobarky, Mohammed Abdullah M. (2017-12-06)This experimental research investigates the opportunity to enhance the oil recovery by enhancing the foam stability by the use of surfactants mixtures in comparison with individual surfactants. The mixtures were prepared ...
-
Emecheta, Akunna C (2013-08-26)Fines migration and clay swelling are major problems encountered in sandstone formations in the petroleum industry which leads to a decline in the level of productivity in the reservoirs. Inorganic salts such as KCl, ...
-
Taghizadeh Ansari, Matin (2014-12-15)Annulus Pressure Buildup (APB) is one of the major design considerations/problems for deepwater wells. APB is even more problematic in High Pressure/High Temperature (HP/HT) wells. High flow rates could potentially worsen ...
