... Abstract Over the last few years, high viscosity friction reducers (HVFRs) have been successfully used in the oil and gas industry across all premier shale plays in North America, including Permian, Bakken, and Eagle Ford. To understand the potential of pressure friction reduction efficiency...

... to flowline issues such as hydrate growth, wax deposition and overpressures, the tool allows early detection, remediation, and therefore consequent reduction of production losses. This paper introduces an innovative in-house developed near-online flow assurance simulation concept for continuous monitoring...

... transformer modules deployed on rigs across the Lower 48 United States demonstrates an average daily reduction in Scope One emissions of 20 metric tons of CO 2 e per rig. With highline powered operations becoming more commonplace in the United States, technological advancements are starting to make their way...

... surfaces before and after wettability modification were analyzed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The measured IFT between formation water and crude oil was equal to 9 mN/m and it reduced to ∼6 mN/m upon decreasing the salinity. Such IFT reduction could contribute to the recovery mechanism...

... Abstract Oil demand continues to rise and is not projected to peak until at least 2030, according to the International Energy Agency, or possibly even later as per OPEC. Despite this, many publicly listed oil companies have announced aggressive emissions reduction targets. For instance...

... Abstract Drag reducing agents (DRAs) are used to reduce friction created by turbulence flow in water transport and injection systems. The objective of this paper to assess mechanical degradation of rigid and flexible polymers used drag reduction applications. Commercial synthetic...

... assessed and designed to be deployed. After piloting the suggested solutions with required controls in place, and because of LP countermeasures, a 60% reduction in planned operation time and 54% cost saving have been observed. This was achieved by eliminating the un-planned change in well sequence which...

.... The reduction in zeta-potential magnitude is accompanied by a decrease in electrostatic repulsion between the two interfaces, promoting oil-wet behavior. This observation is confirmed by the contact angle results, which display a wettability transition from a water-wet state for ZLD treated produced water...

... Abstract Efficient power management in diesel-powered drilling rigs stands as a pivotal factor in operational efficacy, fuel cost, and emissions reductions. In this study, we concentrate on the criticality of maintaining diesel engines at higher loads to attain optimal performance. To realize...

.... The performance of the CFLS was assessed in terms of the %thinning efficiency as well as the %reduction in fluid loss. The results showed a significant reduction of 36% in terms of thinning efficiency and up to 42% in terms of fluid loss by the addition of 8 lb/bbls of the newly developed CFLS. On one hand, one...

The experimental data reveal increase in CO 2 hydrate saturation with increasing water saturation levels. The extent of permeability reduction...

... Abstract Value creation and cost reduction can be accomplished in many ways. Torque, drag, vibration, and Non-Productive time (NPT) all negatively impact total cost on drilling projects. Any efforts to create value by reducing these negative influences on a project’s metrics and overall cost...
