🚨 [URTeC 2024 Paper] Enhancing Production Forecasting Accuracy: A Machine Learning Approach in the Permian Basin Half of lower-48 production comes from wells under 18 months old, which are poorly modeled by traditional decline curves due to sparse and noisy data from varying state reports. Accurate forecasting of these wells is crucial for NPV calculations and supply projections. Our paper compares machine learning methods to traditional curve fitting to assess potential accuracy improvements in forecasting young horizontal wells. ✅ Join us for the URTeC technical presentation on Tuesday, June 18th, 2024, as part of Theme 7: Production Forecasting II Can’t make it to the presentation?

An Arxada energy customer faced a significant challenge in the Permian Basin: an oil and gas production field with sour production of 70-80 ppm H2S. The goal was to bring this down to less than 4 ppm H2S, the typical specification for sales gas lines. Turboscav™ GT, our latest innovation in H2S scavengers, was applied to treat the H2S problem cost-effectively, while eliminating the drawbacks of the incumbent scavenger: terrible odor and scaling (plus additional costs) stemming from its high pH. After application via a two-pronged approach - downhole and direct gas injection - Turboscav™ GT achieved the following results: • H2S levels as low as 0.1 ppm - well below the maximum allowed H2S level! • ~10% savings by eliminating the need for a scale inhibitor Turboscav™ GT also showed additional advantages over the incumbent technology. Its odorless form, nonhazardous classification, and local manufacturing yielded further savings for the customer’s application. Interested in Turboscav™ GT?

The latest case study on our new non-Triazine based H2S scavenger is out! If you have any issues with H2S and need a cost-effective solution, let us know! #O&G #scavengers #costsavings

Last week FDC de Argentina conducted a workshop focused on Unconventional Workflow Integration using KAPPA Engineering softwares and Dash Energy along with distinguished professionals from YPF SA. 📊 During the training, attendants conducted a detailed benchmark of the La Amarga Chica area versus Bajada del Palo Oeste: ➢ Completion and production statistics for all the wells in Bajada del Palo Oeste were carried out. For La Amarga Chica, only wells post-2020 were considered. ➢ A Multiwell forecast was built, normalizing the wells of La Amarga Chica to the number of fractures and p50 branch length of Bajada del Palo Oeste. ➢ Both type wells were constructed and compared, resulting in higher Qopeak and EUR@25 years for the La Amarga Chica type well. ➢ Finally, Single Well economics were calculated for both type wells at P50%. 💥 We hope participants enjoyed exploring Dash Energy! #DASH #OilAndGas #EconomicAnalysis #DashEnergy #SAASsolution #Unconventional #oilgas #EconomicEvaluation #oil #gas #reservoir #FDC #software #KappaEngineering #DashOverview #DataVisualization #EconomicForecast #OilAndGasSoftware

OIL AND GAS ARE NOT "FOSSIL FUELS" THEY ARE A RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCE CREATED BY A GEOTHERMAL REACTION GAS IS THE CLEANEST ENERGY OF THEM ALL 'Abiogenic Deep Origin of Hydrocarbons and Oil and Gas Deposits Formation' "The theory of the abiogenic deep origin of hydrocarbons recognizes that the petroleum is a primordial material of deep origin [Kutcherov, Krayushkin 2010]. This theory explains that hydrocarbon compounds generate in the asthenosphere of the Earth & migrate through the deep faults into the crust of the Earth. There they form oil & gas deposits in any kind of rock in any kind of the structural position (Fig. 1). Thus the accumulation of oil & gas is considered as a part of the natural process of the Earth’s outgrassing, responsible for creation of its hydrosphere, atmosphere & biosphere. Until recently the obstacle to accept the theory of the abyssal abiogenic origin of hydrocarbons was the lack of the reliable & reproducible experimental results confirming the possibility of the synthesis of complex hydrocarbon systems under the conditions of the asthenosphere of planet earth."

As an extremely exothermic reaction, the methanation of hydrogen and carbon monoxide/ dioxide requires significant heat resistance from both the reactor and the catalyst. While nickel is the most commonly used catalyst, ruthenium is sometimes preferred for its high catalytic activity and impressive resistance to oxidizing atmospheres. #PowerToGas #Catalyst #Catalysis #BiogasUpgrading #Biogas #HydrogenEnergy #Methanation #TechNews #NaturalGasGrid #RNG #Methane #Sustainability #ChemicalEngineering

The high price of natural gas again makes interest in Synthetic natural gas (SNG)

KAPPA-Automate automates key tasks such as concatenating and smart filtering high-frequency data from permanent gauges. This is now extended to automate pressure transient analysis (PTA) freeing engineers to focus on reservoir characterization and making data-driven decisions.
