Hydraulic fracturing is commonly referred to as fracking, has changed the global energy landscape through the ability to extract tight oil and shale gas resources previously thought to be uneconomic to extract. By improving the permeability…

Completion marks the last major step in bringing an offshore well online; it is the moment the borehole is fitted for the actual recovery of oil or gas. Because crews…

Workover operations sit at the heart of every oil and gas well’s life. They give crews a chance to fix trouble spots and keep output flowing. Tubing swaps, cleanouts, gear upgrades-…

Artificial lift systems are significant in the oil and gas sector, especially in wells that are old or have low-pressure reservoirs in which the natural energy source is not enough to propel…

Oil and gas are in high-risk environments where even a slight mistake in well control can result in catastrophic blowouts, destruction to the environment, and even human injuries. As exploration progresses to deeper, more…

The oil and gas industry is facing increasing pressure to reduce carbon emissions and move towards sustainable energy practices. Net-zero emissions—balancing emitted greenhouse gases with removal or offset—are a prime…

The oil and gas industry is currently experiencing a profound transformation due to digital technologies, with digital oilfields that combine IoT, AI, big data analytics, and automation creating significant disruption…

Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) is a crucial stage in the lifecycle of oil fields. It is aimed to maximize the extraction of hydrocarbons when primary and secondary recovery techniques decrease in effectiveness. In…

Unconventional oil and gas production is now a key element of the global energy supply that is transforming markets and allowing access to vast hydrocarbon reserves previously considered uneconomic. Contrary to…

Rigless well intervention is an economical and efficient solution for maintaining, repairing, or improving well performance without needing an expensive drilling rig. This approach reduces downtime while cutting operational costs and…

The oil and gas industry is contentiously adopting cutting-edge technologies to increase efficiency, cut costs, and improve security. One of these innovations includes the integration of digital twins into drilling simulators, which is revolutionizing the…

The oil and gas industry is well-known for its intricate operations and risky environments. One of the most crucial aspects of drilling is well control, which involves controlling pressure to prevent blowouts and uncontrolled…
