Stakeholders in the UK offshore sector will be asked to commit to a set of principles to help the sector achieve the energy transition through digitalization.

Failure to electrify facilities in the UK North Sea could soon result in a denial of petroleum licenses and the forced closure of some offshore assets.

This paper describes how near-real-time tracer data from the onsite tracer analysis enabled the operator of the Nova field to interactively optimize two well cleanups.

This paper describes a case study in which, in the absence of a conventional production log, distributed fiber-optic sensing, in conjunction with shut-in temperature measurements, provided a viable method to derive inflow zonal distribution.

Updates about global exploration and production activities and developments.

The $1.24 billion project is expected to tap up to 90 million BOE.

This paper assesses the opportunity for an integrated and circular approach to developing the offshore energy sector for the energy transition. It evaluates how offshore wind, green hydrogen production, and heritage oil and gas expertise can be brought together to benefit all sectors to support a viable green hydrogen and wind economy.

The North Sea Transition Authority has previously said failure to invest in platform electrification could threaten future production rights.

The project aims to store 5 million tons of CO₂ annually, equivalent to a third of the total CO2 emissions from Dutch domestic vehicles in 1 year.

A pilot project will explore onboard carbon capture for container ships, and two heavy-hitters are teaming up to find decarbonization paths in the Asia Pacific region. Elsewhere, wind and solar are on track to pass coal in the race to generate electricity.
