August 2025

The July/August 2025 issue of Oilfield Technology includes articles on well integrity, decommissioning, well control, CCS, contaminant removal, seismic data, and a keynote article on how the Asia-Pacific region is balancing unmatched growth and complexity with the energy transition.

This month's front cover is brought to you by Wild Well Control.

Balancing growth and complexity

Stewart Maxwell, Technical Director at Aquaterra Energy, explains how the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region is balancing unmatched growth and complexity with the energy transition.

Optimising operations in a shifting energy landscape

Brendan O’Leary, Regional Manager, UK, Europe, Africa, Australasia, and Japan, WWT, discusses how to effectively optimise operations in a shifting energy landscape with reference to the UK.

Precision pre-commissioning

Darrel Sookdeo, Vice President, Process Services, EnerMech, explores the role of pre-commissioning in Guyana’s gas-to-energy future.

Tackling well integrity early

Jace Larrison, Vice President – Well Control Engineering, UIS, and Training, Wild Well Control, USA, examines well integrity and the implications on well control events.

Easy button for H2S removal

Jordan Flaniken, Managing Director of Adsorbents, Merichem Technologies, discusses the opportunity for oil and gas production companies to address contaminant removal with ‘easy button’ solutions.

Paving the way for CCS

Garry Stephen, Oil States, UK and Asia, discusses how field-proven oil and gas technologies can pave the way forward for carbon capture and storage (CCS).

Developing technology in the offshore sector

Calum Dey, Engineering Manager, Decom Engineering, details the development of new technologies designed to meet unique challenges of cutting tasks in challenging environments.

Navigating uncertainty

Alan Quirke, Vice President of Well Intervention & Integrity, Expro, discusses the strategic role of well intervention and well integrity management in a capital-disciplined, socially conscious energy supply era.

Making strides in subsurface imaging in complex environments

Nick Tranter, STRYDE, analyses new technologies seeking to address the increasing requirements of oil and gas companies to acquire high-resolution 3D seismic data in complex, high-stakes environments.

Icing on the cake

Joel Shaw, Silverwell Energy, USA, examines how surface-controlled gas lift systems will play a greater role in maximising the potential of gas-lifted wells while minimising environmental impact and operational costs.
