Abstract: Reducing leak-off during acid stimulation with dissolvable material sized to preferentially block crevices and wormholes, thus allowing the acid to travel further down the fractures, etching deeper into the reservoir than a similar process not using such dissolvable materials. After stimulation, the materials dissolve and production can proceed and will be improved over what is possible without such dissolvable materials.

Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for isolation detection. In one implementation, a radial acoustic log is obtained. The radial acoustic log is captured using a radial sensor of an acoustic logging tool deployed within a first structure. The first structure disposed within a second structure in a subterranean environment. A radial symmetry is determined using the radial acoustic log. An eccentricity of the first structure relative to the second structure is determined based on the radial symmetry.

Abstract: The invention relates to the introduction of pressurized fluid, e.g. acid, into a subsea well directly from a vessel (33). A fluid injection assembly (20) is fitted to the top of a subsea Xmas tree (3), the assembly (20) including fail safe closed valve (21) which is controlled via a hydraulic line (31) from the vessel. The hose and assembly and valve are designed with an internal bore allowing a large diameter ball to be dropped (required for acid stimulation). The subsea subsea control module (8) on the Xmas tree is controlled from the producing platform.

Abstract: A method for 2D seismic data acquisition includes determining source-point seismic survey positions for a combined deep profile seismic data acquisition with a shallow profile seismic data acquisition wherein the source-point positions are based on non-uniform optimal sampling. A seismic data set is acquired with a first set of air-guns optimized for a deep-data seismic profile and the data set is acquired with a second set of air-guns optimized for a shallow-data seismic profile. The data are de-blended to obtain a deep 2D seismic dataset and a shallow 2D seismic dataset.

Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for processing liquefied natural gas (LNG). In one implementation, a dry feed gas is received. The dry feed gas is chilled with clean vapor from a heavies removal column to form a chilled feed gas. The chilled feed gas is partially condensed into a vapor phase and a liquid phase. The liquid phase retains freezing components. The freezing components are extracted using a reflux stream in the heavies removal column. The freezing components are removed as a condensate. The vapor phase is compressed into a clean feed gas. The clean feed gas is free of the freezing components for downstream liquefaction.

Abstract: Gadolinium- or boron-doped drilling mud is used during drilling so that it will penetrate all natural cracks in the formation that intersect with the wellbore. Once cased, cemented and washed, the doped mud will only be in the fractures. Pulsed neutron logging is performed, and natural factures thereby characterized.

Abstract: A procedure and apparatus for cementing and cleaning a reservoir liner 3 comprises installing a reservoir liner using a drill string 4 which extends only as far as the distal end of a cased part 2 of the well, then, using the drill string, displacing cement into the reservoir liner using completion fluid whereby, when the cement is in place in the annulus around the reservoir liner, the reservoir liner is already clean and filled with completion fluid. A ball valve 6 at the top of the reservoir liner 3 is then closed before the cased part 2 of the wellbore is cleaned, to avoid debris entering the reservoir liner.

Abstract: A system and method of detecting subsurface karst features includes receiving surface mapping data. A potential surface pad location can be identified in view of the surface mapping data. A resistivity survey for the potential surface pad location can be designed. The resistivity survey can include at least one long line extending through a surface hole for each of one or more wellbores in the potential surface pad location, and a short line extending through the surface hole of one of the one or more wellbores, each short line intersecting the long line substantially at the surface hole of one of the one or more wellbores. High resistivity areas exceeding approximately 150 Ohm per meter can be identified as sub surface karst features within the resistivity survey.

Abstract: The invention relates to the measurement of the rheology of drilling fluid down a hydrocarbon well in real time during operations. A sensor device comprising a pipe rheometer with multiple diameters is installed in a bottom hole assembly tool, such that a portion of the total flow of drilling fluid passes through it. In this way the rheological properties of the drilling fluid can be determined under the high pressures and elevated temperatures encountered downhole.
