UNWANTED WATER & GAS production in the oil industry

Описание: Every day, across the globe, horizontal oil wells extract vast amounts of unwanted water and gas from the ground. The fluids are transported to the surface for separation and treatment, before being discharged back into the earth’s atmosphere and ecosystems. This doesn’t only cost the industry, but it comes at a great cost to the environment. Why does this happen and how can it be avoided? With the help of our CEO, Dr. Vidar Mathiesen and Subsurface Vice President, Dr. Ismarullizam Mohd Ismail, we begin an exploratory series on inflow control technology using simplified science to answer these very questions.
