Closed-loop field development (CLFD) optimization is a comprehensive framework for optimal development of subsurface resources. CLFD involves three major steps: 1) optimization of full development plan based on current set of models, 2) drilling new wells and collecting new spatial and temporal (production) data, 3) model calibration based on all data. This process is repeated until the optimal...
There are a number of developments where new dry tree platform drilling rigs are specified. In some cases the geographical location, number of wells to be drilled and the ongoing life of field intervention requirements lead to the need for a permanent rig installation. The majority of permanent offshore rig installations has in the main been confined to the N. Sea region. As a result there is a...
Gas-lifted oil wells are susceptible to failure through malfunction of gas lift valves. This is a growing concern as offshore wells are drilled thousands of meters below the ocean floor in extreme temperature and pressure conditions and repair and monitoring become more difficult. Gas lift valves and oil well systems have been modeled but system failure modes are not well understood. In this pa...
Recently, we have seen falling oil prices combined with sticky costs at a high level in the petroleum industry. This cause cost cuts and project postponements, thus challenging reserve replacement of oil companies and security of supply for consumers. Costs are particularly high for drilling. High rig rates are obviously important. In new contracts for high-spec semi rigs on the Norwegian Conti...
The salinization processes of the Yarkon-Taninim aquifer (Israel) were investigated for many years, and so far little was known about the saline water body prevailing in the North-Western margin of the aquifer. The salinity of the water in this water body is close to that of seawater. Recently, in drilled wells in the Northern part of the aquifer, it was found that the freshwater and the saltwa...
In the recent years, not much environmental monitoring has been conducted in the territory of Kosovo. This study represents the first comprehensive monitoring of the drinking water situation throughout most of the territory of Kosovo. We present the distribution of major and minor trace elements in drinking water samples from Kosovo. During our study we collected 951 samples from four different...
Hydraulic fracturing is used to increase the permeability of shale gas formations and involves pumping large volumes of fluids into these formations. A portion of the frac fluid remains in the formation after the fracturing process is complete, which could potentially contribute to deleterious microbially induced processes in natural gas wells. Here, we report on the geochemical and microbiolog...
More than 15 million Americans are now estimated to live within one mile of a natural gas well drilled since 2000. Research has demonstrated that natural gas development results in the emission of pollutants that include suspected developmental toxicants, such as benzene, toluene, and xylenes, 2 although few studies have investi gated the public health impact of these emissions. In this issue ...
Groundwater development in fractured hard rock aquifers has always assumed a secondary role compared with that in unconsolidated alluvial strata or in soluble carbonate rocks. This is because of the nonextensive, irregular, nonisotropic, and inhomogeneous nature of the aquifer and the relatively small yields of water available from dug-wells or drilled bores. However, many of the highly populat...
Although recent studies suggest contamination by bacteria and nitrate in private drinking water systems is of increasing concern, data describing contaminants associated with the corrosion of onsite plumbing are scarce. This study reports on the analysis of 2,146 samples submitted by private system homeowners. Almost 20% of first draw samples submitted contained lead concentrations above the Un...
