Bentley Systems and Trimble have committed to leveraging construction modeling for the benefit of capital, industrial, and infrastructure project delivery. Aspects of construction modeling include modeling of temporary works, intelligent positioning…
With a slightly different approach, hydrodynamic modeling can be used for overpressure prediction in on and offshore environments. Marcell Lux, Ahmed Amran, and Marianna Vincze explain. Fig. 1…
A multi-model approach is being used to take into account new phenomena and any number of structures, whatever their type, for ice-load modeling offshore. Philippe Cambos explains. Ice modeling conical structure side view…
Baker Hughes has released its Completion ArchiTEX (CTX) 3D completion design software, which provides an interactive representation of real-world well environments for more accurate completion designs. The software allows users to input…
Paradigm released the latest extension of its Paradigm 14 solution suite. This version, Paradigm 14.1, enables broadband processing, high definition (HD) imaging, quantitative interpretation, and advances toward high-definition earth modeling…
Active magnetic bearings (AMBs) are helping to make subsea gas compression possible. Joaquim Da Silva, François Carrere and Frédéric Ponson of SKF Magnetic Mechatronics, explain the engineering process involved to create the AMBs needed for this complex project…
For rig crews sitting miles away from the coastline – and sometimes on the other side of the globe from their home offices – communication can be difficult. Barry Calnan, of Houston’s 3d-Printing Solutions (see Spotlight, page 93), points…
Emerson Process Management launched Roxar Tempest 7.1, the latest version of its integrated reservoir engineering software suite. The new software enhances its uncertainty management and reservoir prediction features within the software module Tempest ENABLE…
Pile Dynamics Inc. (PDI) has reengineered its traditional Pile Integrity Tester (PIT) model. The updated model gives the PIT a large and bright color screen, a lighter enclosure and a USB port for data transfer. This model is available…
Halliburton’s Landmark Software and Services acquired Neftex Petroleum Consultants Ltd. Neftex is a UK-based company specializing in sequence stratigraphy-based products and consulting for subsurface risk reduction. Neftex’s consistent…
Data gathering and large-scale reservoir modeling will be key to unlocking Anadarko's big gas development off Mozambique. Bruce Nichols spoke with Anadarko and engineers at Halliburton's Landmark to discover more. When Anadarko made three…
