Abstract: Methods for assessing the effectiveness of an acid stimulation operation in a hydrocarbon well are described herein. The methods use encapsulated tracer particles comprising a tracer material that is coated with a calcium carbonate shell. Different encapsulated tracer particles are placed into different portions of a well. A subsequent acid stimulation operation dissolves the calcium carbonate shell and releases the tracer material. The different tracer materials indicate the effectiveness of the acid stimulation operation in different portions of the well.

Abstract: A method for remotely evaluating fatigue damage of a subsea wellhead may include obtaining a plurality of values associated with measurements of a parameter associated with the fatigue damage of the subsea wellhead during field operations, wherein the measurements are measured by a sensor device positioned separately from and adjacent to the subsea wellhead; executing an algorithm using the measurements to generate a result; comparing the result of the algorithm with a range of acceptable values; and determining that the subsea wellhead has a potential failure when the result falls outside the range of acceptable values.

Abstract: A tubing hanger retention system for a wellhead assembly can include a retention ring that is configured to fit over a top portion of a tubing hanger of the wellhead assembly, where the retention ring comprises a plurality of retention ring channels. The tubing hanger retention system can also include multiple retention pin receiving features configured to be disposed, at least in part, within multiple tubing spool channels of a tubing spool. The tubing hanger retention system can further include multiple retention pins configured to be received by the retention pin receiving features, where each retention pin includes an engagement feature configured to be received by a retention pin receiving feature to place the retention pin in a captured state, where the engagement feature of each retention pin is further configured to enter into an engaged state with a retention ring channel when the retention pin is moved inward.

Abstract: A process of making a silica-alumina composition having improved properties is provided. The process includes (a) mixing an aqueous solution of a silicon compound and an aqueous solution of an aluminum compound and an acid, while maintaining a pH of the mixed solution in a range of 1 to 3, and obtaining an acidified silica-alumina sol; (b) adding an aqueous solution of a base precipitating agent to the acidified silica-alumina sol to a final pH in a range of 5 to 8, and co-precipitating a silica-alumina slurry, wherein the base precipitating agent is selected from ammonium carbonate, ammonium bicarbonate, and any combination thereof; (c) optionally, hydrothermally aging the silica-alumina slurry to form a hydrothermally aged silica-alumina slurry; and (d) recovering a precipitate solid from the silica-alumina slurry or the hydrothermally aged silica-alumina slurry, wherein the precipitate solid comprises the silica-alumina composition.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for treating contaminated material. The material is heated by nonconductive and nonconvective heating in a vacuum chamber such that the surface of the material is heated without significant heating of the air within the chamber. The surface of the material is heated to at least a volatilization temperature of the contaminants or to a decomposition temperature of one or more compounds in intimate contact with the contaminants, so that the concentration of contaminants in the material is reduced. Exhaust is removed from the chamber and cooled. A solids and/or liquids collector removes condensed solids and/or liquids and has a gas outlet connected to a vacuum pump.

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.
