When it comes to natural gas and its potential in the future energy mix, there’s both pessimism and optimism – depending on who’s talking.
Something old, something new: For decades, production in the Granite Wash has been a steady, ongoing story – but the book is getting an exciting new chapter, thanks largely to horizontal drilling.
Dangerous, or not so much? Some are anxious to give the public a different perspective on hydraulic fracturing.
Geomechanics’ value: The deeper we get into shale plays, the more obvious it becomes that no two plays are the same.
We’ve come a long way, baby: Advances in downhole geology during the past 10 years tell a compelling story about the industry’s accomplishments, expectations and continuing demands.
Sorting out the new data types emerging from the unconventional plays has led to new strategies for managing the data and spawned an array of ancillary business opportunities. EXPANDED FOR WEB.
Hot, hot, hot: The Niobrara play joins the list of hot shales – even being dubbed the “NeoBakken.” An industry-sponsored consortium evaluates the complexities of this giant play to help further its economic success.
A whole lotta shakin’ is going on – but the matter of human induced seismicity remains a complex and heavily researched mystery.
With lower gas prices shale plays look more attractive resulting in increased seismic data to help find that liquid component.
Sweet sound of success: The spotlight turns to oil in the Bakken shale, and the focus was squarely on the sweet spots.
