Abstract: A system for utilizing excess heat during a subsea field operation can include a subsea manifold configured to transfer a subterranean resource to a pipeline located subsea, where the subterranean resource radiates the excess heat after being transferred out of the subsea manifold. The system can also include a subsea power generation system that receives the excess heat from the subterranean resource as the subterranean resource is transferred from the subsea manifold to the pipeline, where subsea power generation system uses the excess heat to generate electrical power.

Abstract: A hybrid modeling approach incorporates both physics-based reservoir modeling and machine learning technique to capture dynamic behavior of unconventional wells. Shut-in bottom hole pressure for unconventional wells are simulated for use as proxy for reservoir pressure in unconventional reservoirs. Production parameters for unconventional wells (e.g., gas/oil ratio, water cut, flowing bottom hole pressure, shut-in bottom hole pressure, productivity index) are determined for use in controlling the operations of unconventional wells.

Abstract: A system for fracturing a plurality of wellbores on a multi-well pad includes multiple missiles, where each missile is configured to receive a high-pressure fracturing fluid from a plurality of pump trucks, where a high-pressure fracturing fluid includes substantially all components used for fracturing one or multiple wellbores. The system also includes a main manifold that receives the high-pressure fracturing fluids from the missiles, where the main manifold includes valves and output channels. The valves are operated to enable flow of the high-pressure fracturing fluids to different wellbores through the output channels to fracture the different wellbores.

Abstract: A deployment system for deploying a polymer grout system includes a first conduit line for conveying an isocyanate component, a second conduit line for conveying an organic polyol component, and a mixer for mixing the isocyanate component and the organic polyol component to form an expandable polymer grout system that is deployed to a target location associated with a wellbore. The deployment system can include a tailpipe and/or bridge plug for directing the expandable polymer grout system to the target location. The disclosure also includes methods of using the foregoing deployment system.

Abstract: Properties of liquid flowing through a Venturi tube, operating characteristics of the Venturi tube, geometry of the Venturi tube, and correlation between Reynolds number and coefficient of discharge for the Venturi tube are used to determine a flow rate of liquid or liquid/liquid mixture in the Venturi tube. Determination of the Reynolds number is reiterated to increase the accuracy of the liquid flow rate measurement in the Venturi tube. The liquid flow rate in the Venturi tube is monitored to control the liquid flow.

Abstract: A process involves sequentially treating a plurality of lipid feedstocks comprising a set of lipid feedstocks each having a chloride content of at least about 2 ppm with a metal oxide catalyst on an oxide support under first treating conditions to produce respective treated streams of the set of lipid feedstocks having a chloride content less than 1 ppm until a given one of the respective treated streams has a chloride content greater than 1 ppm and the metal oxide catalyst is converted to a spent metal oxide catalyst, converting the spent metal oxide catalyst to a rejuvenated metal oxide catalyst, and treating one or more additional lipid feedstocks each having a chloride content of at least about 2 ppm with the rejuvenated metal oxide catalyst under second treating conditions to produce one or more respective treated streams each having a chloride content less than 1 ppm.

Abstract: Well data (e.g., well log) may be divided into multiple segments, and different samplings of data in the individual segments may be performed to increase the amount of data that is used to train a seismic inversion model. Synthetic well data may be generated from real well data to increase the amount of well data from which sampling is performed.
