The transition away from materials that contain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), co-called forever chemicals, creates an opportunity to preserve historical information. Information that appears to have little operational value today may later become important when organizations need to evaluate past PFAS use. Once that information is lost, recreating it may…

DNV notes that energy and industrial process-related carbon emissions will have dropped by 2050 by only 44% from today’s level, not even halfway to the net-zero pledge envisioned by the Paris climate agreement.

The legacy of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) is a persistent problem in many industries, including upstream oil and gas. In this Q&A, remediation expert Grant Scott presents the trouble with these “forever chemicals” and the mitigating efforts being used.

Considering three different climate pathways, the analysis says holding global temperature rise to 2°C by the end of the century remains possible, though increasingly challenging.

This paper presents an approach to the identification, selection, and implementation of initiatives for sustainable water management, withdrawal reduction, and water valorization.

This guest editorial examines how the most commonly used and cited methane emissions metric can create a misleading picture of upstream gas-handling performance for both the public and industry professionals.

Spain has granted permits covering a swath of the mountain range to Mantle8 for natural hydrogen and helium exploration a month after France granted the company similar permits.

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine recommend continued state and federal funding, data-sharing, and new technologies to mitigate the risks posed by orphan wells.

A laboratory research study evaluates several different chemical injection concepts for the removal of elemental mercury from multiphase flow.

Remote sensing techniques have proven their popularity. This paper demonstrates how modern information technology helps by adding more value to tested and proven sensors and systems within offshore marine operations.
