The company has acquired Dublin-based Enviroguide Consulting in an effort to increase its focus on environmental concerns.

The project aims to power subsea equipment with wave power and subsea energy storage. The two technologies have been deployed in the seas off Orkney, Scotland, and have begun a test program where they will provide low-carbon power and communication to infrastructure.

Research team pushes toward a framework for managing millions of abandoned oil and gas wells.

The intensity of methane and greenhouse-gas emissions from the oil and gas sector declined 28% and 30%, respectively, between 2019 and 2021 among the largest producers in the country, according to an analysis published by the nonprofits Clean Air Task Force and Ceres.

This paper presents the oil spill contingency plan adopted by Pertamina to protect sensitive areas on and around Java, the world’s most populous island.

A new study that analyzed 17 years of migratory bird-nesting data in Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, revealed that nest survival decreased significantly near high-use oil and gas infrastructure and its related noise, dust, traffic, air pollution, and other disturbances.

The authors of this paper describe a continuous monitoring system based on the Internet of Things (IoT) to use methane-concentration sensors permanently installed at facilities and connected to a cloud-based interpretation platform.

The Center for Western Priorities’ annual Western Oil and Gas Spills Tracker report shows that Colorado’s oil and gas industry is trending in the wrong direction on drilling-related spills.

Several options exist for large-scale hydrogen underground storage: lined caverns, salt domes, saline aquifers, and depleted oil/gas reservoirs. In this paper, a commercial reservoir simulator was used to model cyclic injection/withdrawal from saline aquifers and depleted oil/gas reservoirs. The results revealed the need to contain the stored volume with an integrated…

Regulators told some injection well operators close to the epicenter of a magnitude 4.0 earthquake that they will have to shut down their operations indefinitely.
