SPE’s newest technical community, the Critical Minerals Technical Section, aims to connect petroleum expertise with emerging opportunities to extract lithium, rare earth elements, and other critical minerals from subsurface reservoirs and industrial brines.

The objective of this study is to numerically investigate system behavior when storing H2/natural gas (CH4) mixtures in aquifer-related underground gas storage, and the effect of gas composition and salinity on energy-recovery efficiency.

From credit markets to grid constraints, the forces shaping energy today go far beyond price. Inside the inaugural E3S symposium, industry leaders, policymakers, economists, and students explored how technology, financing, permitting, and supply chain resilience are redefining what it takes to power the energy future.

The NLR has released its 2025 US Geothermal Market Report, documenting 4 years of industry growth and providing policymakers and stakeholders with an updated overview of the US geothermal market.

Fugro’s entry into the UK’s small modular reactor market follows its breakthrough in the US, where it secured a contract in February to perform a geoscience site investigation for the recommissioned Palisades Nuclear Power Plant in Michigan.

2025 has seen an 81% year-on-year rise in the number of small modular reactor designs to have secured at least one source of funding or a funding commitment.

APOGCE 2025 set the stage for strategic dialogues on how Asia Pacific’s upstream industry can innovate, invest, and collaborate to meet growing energy demand while advancing net-zero goals.

SPE Technical Director Hamad Al-Marri shares his outlook of the oil and gas production facilities landscape as it stands on the cusp of a significant transformation. The demand for oil and gas will continue to exist, but the industry will need to adapt to a new reality.

Jennifer Miskimins shares her vision for the year ahead—rooted in SPE’s new tagline, “Solutions. People. Energy.”—and outlines how the Society can meet growing global energy needs, support members, and shape the industry’s future.

The US Department of Energy announced a $625 million investment to expand America’s coal industry, aiming to increase energy production and support coal communities.
