Abstract: Efficient development of oil and gas resources, especially unconventional, deep-seated, deep-water and Arctic resources tends to be more dependent on technical progress, especially the progress in engineering technology. After entering into 21st century, foreign petroleum engineering technology developed very fast and a lot of important and advanced technology emerged. This paper summed up 18 items of technology, including the rotary and navigation drilling technology, the pressure-regulated drilling technology, the deep-water drilling technology, the intelligent drill pipe technology, the continuous tripping technology, the continuous-cycle rig technology, and the collapsible and continuous casing technology. All the emerging technologies worth high attention from Chinese petroleum industry.
