September 2023

As the weather cools and Summer fades into Autumn, why not warm up with a brand-new issue of Oilfield Technology? The Autumn issue kicks off with an overview of the upstream oil and gas sector in the MENA region from Frost & Sullivan, followed by a discussion from Baker Hughes on the past and present of dynamic reservoir simulation. The new issue contains a breadth of fantastic articles from expert contributors such as Halliburton Landmark, NOV, and Wild Well Control, and delves into topics like downhole tools, well control, and water technology, to name a few. Many thanks go out to our fantastic front cover sponsor, Abaco Drilling Technologies.

As always, the team at Oilfield Technology hopes you enjoy this new instalment!

This month's front cover is brought to you by Abaco Drilling Technologies.
