Abstract (sommario):

This is the first academic study of well costs and drilling times for Australia???s petroleum producing basins, both onshore and offshore. I analyse a substantial database of well times and costs sourced from government databases, industry and over 400 recent well completion reports. Three well phases are studied - Pre-Spud, Drilling and Completion. Relationships between well cost factors are considered, including phase time, phase cost, daily cost, rig day rate, well depth, basin, rig type, water depth, well direction, well objective (e.g. exploration), and type of completion (P&A or producer

Abstract (sommario):

The general demand for automating industrial processes in the oil industry has increased rapidly in parallel with sensors and their underlying technology. Since the early 1980s, the particular problem, which has been representing the extremes in complexity in the oil industry, is the measurement of multiphase flow components, the mixing ratio of oil, water, and gas flowing in a pipeline. Electromagnetic (EM) Wave sensors can provide an attractive solution, because microwave signals can penetrate most materials allowing the measurement to be representative for the cross section of the pipeline.

While the effects of asphaltene concetration and CO<sub>2</sub> injection pressure on asphaltene precipitation rate have been the focus of many studies, asphaltene precipitation rate is not a reliable factor to predict the magnitude of asphaltene-induced formation damage.

Abstract (sommario):

<p> Reactive transport phenomena, such as CO2 sequestration and Microbial EOR, have been of interest in streamline-based simulations. Tracing streamlines launched from a wellbore is important, especially for time-sensitive transport behaviors. However, discretized gridblocks are usually too large as compared to the wellbore radius. Field-scale simulations with local-grid-refinement (LGR) models often consume huge computational time. An embedded grid-free approach to integrate near-wellbore transport behaviors into streamline simulations is developed, which consists of two stages of development

(2) As ions are dispersed, this allows the gas bubbles out of the shale/soil and forces the flakes and fragments to float to the top of the water on the vessel.

Abstract (sommario):

<p> The limit of drilling ERD comes from the excessive friction between the drill string and borehole. This study investigates the potential of increasing the limit of horizontal displacement through optimization of drilling fluid and bottom hole assemblies. We conclude that lubricating bottom hole with water can significantly increase the maximum permissible WOB. This effect is more pronounced in drilling tight sands than shales with gas. Cooling the bottom hole with gas expansion after bit nozzles can greatly increase the maximum permissible WOB in drilling formations with geothermal tempera

Abstract (sommario):

<p> Scale control in oilfield operations is the intervention technique deployed to remove the assemblage of solid deposits from the surface of oil and gas well tubular and associated equipment. Common mineral scales that plague production operations are Barium Sulfate, Strontium Sulfate, Calcium Carbonate, and Iron Sulfide. Some of these scales can be dissolved with acid while others cannot. Barium Sulfate which is common at perforations and downstream of chokes is notorious for its resistance to chemical treatment because of its low acid solubility.</p><p> This study investigates the effect

Abstract (sommario):

<p>U.S. domestic shale-gas production is economic owing to the new completion practice of horizontal wells and multiple hydraulic fractures. The performance of these fractures is improved through the placement of proppant. The change in the stress can affect fracture conductivity considerably. The objective of this study is to experimentally determine the impact of rock stress and time on aperture and permeability of hydraulic fractures in shale gas reservoirs. </p><p> Seven experiments were conducted to measure pressure and time dependent closure and permeability of hydraulic fractures crea

Abstract (sommario):

<p> Analytical models were derived in this work to predict the Maximum Permissible Pressure (MaxPP) and Minimum Permissible Pressure (MinPP) in CO<sub>2 </sub>sequestration and other fluid injection wells. The outer radius of the cement sheath should be estimated on the basis of cement placement efficiency measured by the CBL. </p><p> The West Hastings Oil Field and Oyster Bayou Oil Field in Gulf of Mexico region were analyzed to identify the potential leakage of the current CO<sub> 2 </sub> injection wells using the analytical models. Potential problems for the current wells were identified

Abstract (sommario):

<p> Natural gas and oil exploration and production from shale formations have gained a great momentum in many regions in the past five years. Producing hydrocarbons from shale is challenging because of low productivity of wells. Optimal design of transverse fractures is a key to achieving successful well completion and field economics. The minimum fracture spacing and the fracture propagation trajectory are the determinant for the successful transverse fracture optimization. Various states of anisotropic stress have been applied to the simulated models with assigning criteria for fracture init

Abstract (sommario):

<p> The importance of cement integrity in the downhole well cannot be over looked. Cement designed for a particular well may not work for another well. As a result, there is a need to design well cement based on appropriate well conditions in order to achieve good integrity during the life time of the well. This research focused on micro-annulus and crack problems associated with downhole well cements. Waste tires have contributed to environmental problems. </p><p> Waste tires can be crushed into small particles and used for construction purposes. This is seen as a promising avenue to get ri

Abstract (sommario):

<p> Rock geo-mechanical properties are important in petroleum engineering. The determination of reservoir’s mechanical properties is critical to reduce drilling risk and maximizing well and reservoir productivity. Rock geo-mechanical properties vary not only with rock types, but also with measurement method, samples geometry (sample size and length to diameter ratio), and other factors. Because rocks are heterogeneous media, sample geometry can significantly affect measured rock mechanical properties, including unconfined and confined compressive strength, Young’s Modulus, and Pois

Abstract (sommario):

<p> Production of natural gas from unconventional gas-hydrate reservoirs faces kinds of challenges and uncertainties. One of the main and most common problems in gas-hydrates drilling is the dissociated gas from gas hydrates with decrease of pressure, increase of temperature, or combination of them. A reliable method that can be applied to predict the temperature profile of fluid during circulating in the drilling pipe and the annulus is needed. An analytical model was developed in this study for predicting temperature profiles in drilling gas-hydrate deposits. A case study is provided and ind

Abstract (sommario):

<p> After primary and secondary recovery there is still oil remaining in the reservoir, so tertiary recovery is introduced. This is also known as EOR. Enhanced oil recovery has been widely used with different types of polymers. Algae polymer is a new development with its own advantages and limitations. In order to discover the economic potential of algae polymer, this paper focuses on the recovery factor of algae polymer and compares it with other published results.</p>
