New well completions tech shifts production economics with fewer requirements for costly well interventions


HOUSTON--BUSINESS WIRE--

Global energy technology company SLB (NYSE: SLB) today launched Electris™ — a portfolio of digitally enabled electric well completions technologies that boost production and recovery while reducing the total cost of ownership of an asset.

Electris completions digitalize control of the entire productive area of the wellbore, providing real-time production intelligence across the reservoir.

Electris completions digitalize control of the entire productive area of the wellbore, providing real-time production intelligence across the reservoir. This enables operators to predict, adapt and act with confidence in response to dynamic production conditions — improving reservoir management over the life of the well and accessing reserves that conventional systems leave behind.

“Electris completions take reservoir management to the next level — making it possible for operators to get more out of their assets with fewer requirements for costly well interventions,” said Paul Sims, president, Production Systems. “With much of the ‘easy’ oil already produced, operators are encountering more and more complex reservoirs. Electris completions can help shift the production economics in these reservoirs — resulting in higher recovery factors that maximize return on investment from the asset.”

There have been more than 100 installations of Electris completions technologies across five countries. In Norway, Electris completions were deployed offshore to enhance oil production in an extended-reach well. The operator is using intelligence from the system to determine which zones are contributing to production to optimize oil output and minimize produced water. Controlling water production with Electris completions has decreased the energy needed to lift and then pump treated water back into the reservoir.

Today's announcement was made at the Offshore Technology Conference, which is taking place this week in Houston, Texas.

Media Release: Energy roadmap shows renewables remain key and AEMO is starting to hear regional communities

For immediate release Monday 15 December 2025 A not-for-profit working for more than a decade with regional communities at the centre of Australia’s shift to renewable energy has welcomed the release of the Australian Energy Market Operator’s (AEMO) draft Integrated System Plan (ISP) 2026. National Director of the Renewable Energy Alliance (RE-Alliance), Andrew Bray, said AEMO’s ISP is the most comprehensive pathway to energy security by 2050. “It may sound like a lot of acronyms, but AEMO’s ISP is as close as we’ve got to a national roadmap for how we’re going to keep the lights on as Australia’s ageing…

Friends with benefits: Social connections slow ageing in dolphins, too

[EMBARGOED 00:01 15/12/2025|Sydney] New research shows male bottlenose dolphins with strong friendships age more slowly than their more solitary peers. The new UNSW Sydney research reveals for the first time in any non-human species that social bonds can slow ageing at the cellular level. “Social connections are so important for health that they slow down ageing at the cellular level,” says lead author Dr Livia Gerber, who conducted the study at UNSW, and now works at CSIRO’s National Research Collections Australia. “We knew social bonds helped animals live longer, but this is the first time we’ve shown they affect the…
