During the drilling of oil and gas wells, casing and cementing are two vital operations that maintain the integrity and safety of the well throughout its productive life. The two…

When discussing segments of the global energy infrastructure that focus on oil transportation, one should keep in mind the movement of crude oil and the operation of transport and consumer…

In the deepwater environments, well intervention is important for sustaining the production and the performance of offshore oil and gas wells. Operators deal with perplexing well integrity challenges as exploration…

The development of deep and complex reservoirs has become increasingly challenging as operators move toward tighter formations, HPHT environments, and depleted zones. These wells require precise pressure control in both…

The landscape of energy production has always been subject to changes, and on the frontline of change has been the evolution of shale gas drilling. What was once a truly…

The wellbore stability is vital because it contributes to the safety, efficacy, and economic viability of the drilling efforts in the oil and gas sector. Wellbore instability is dangerous because it can…

The oil and gas industry has always been one of the most complex, high-risk sectors in the world. Traditionally, new engineers, operators, and technicians relied on classroom lectures, manuals, and…

Oil and gas industry operation needs hands-on experience, but real-world drilling is risky and costly. That is where the drilling rig simulator comes in: a safe, controlled virtual environment that…

Geothermal drilling is gaining attention in the oil and gas industry, even though it is primarily considered part of the renewable energy sector. Geothermal energy is seen as a potential ally…

Casing while drilling (CWD) combines drilling and casing installation in one operation, drilling while simultaneously installing casing, a technique used in the oil and gas sector, and has a huge…

Safe and economic storage and transportation of oil and gas is the backbone of the global energy market. From the production location to the refinery and end-user, every operation in…
