Near Bit Sensors Create ‘Formation Evaluation-While-Geosteering’ Capability
Advances in directional drilling technology have enabled more complex trajectories to be drilled and brought hard-to-reach reservoirs within range. These drilling technology advances have driven the parallel development of near bit sensor technology that serves both the driller and the petrophysicist. This “formation evaluation-while-geosteering” capability capitalizes on advances across the spectrum of at-bit sensor technology, from the most fundamental inclination-only sensors for rotary steerable drilling, to an azimuthal focused resistivity sensor with a “resistivity-at-bit” measurement for rotary steerable and motor applications. Next-generation Developments in Logging Technologies
Halliburton Wireline and Perforating Services have been focused on product development in recent years, resulting in a full suite of advanced logging tools that are helping operators overcome the challenges of the oilfield. Customers are especially excited about these technologies because they have been crafted and refined with customer input to directly solve high-value problems. New Developments in Chemical Stimulation of Gas Condensate Wells
Natural gas wells are susceptible to condensate drop out, as the wells are typically operated below the dew point pressure of the reservoir. The condensate accumulates in the near well bore region, which results in a decrease in production. Even in a lean gas reservoir (<1% dropout), significant amounts of fluid can accumulate reducing production by a factor of two or three. The amount of blocking depends on several factors including fluid properties, formation characteristics, flow rate and pressure. Sigma Guard EHB
"Resistant for many chemicals plus potable water and sea water" Introduction of High-Performance Water-Based Fluids in Ultra-Deep Offshore Wells in the East Mediterranean Sea
Over the years, operators drilling offshore and onshore in the Nile Delta area have searched for a high-performance water-based fluid (HPWBF) that can replace oil-based fluids and exhibit the same characteristics. Recently a new HPWBF has been introduced to the area that has helped close this gap. Brown Fields Development Opportunities Emerging – Part II
As the crude oil prices are tremendously increasing; jumping above the $100, the development economics are totally changing. Minor, and mature or Brown Fields assets have considerable economic value evolved dramatically. Given the fact that technology is evolving exponentially enough to support non traditional hydrocarbon assets development, and to extremely pushing the recoveries to the highest limit Brown Fields development, where opportunities emerge
