Advantages for conversion of nonactive oil and gas wells to geothermal wells include deferred plugging and abandonment costs, safety and environmental concerns, and potential energy production.

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.

In an assessment of efforts to meet a key Paris accord target, the International Renewable Energy Agency said the energy transition was currently "off-track."

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

Putting into action an agreement signed in 2022, the companies will collaborate on the project to test the emerging technology for producing geothermal energy.

Under the new agreement, ExxonMobil will capture, transport, and store carbon from Nucor’s direct reduced iron plant in Louisiana.

The innovations in the carbon removal space are gaining attention for their potential to curb global climate change, but they each face particular challenges in implementation.

Companies licensed to drill in the North Sea will report their findings to regulators under new powers brought forward in an Energy Bill amendment.

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…

The Gas Growth Integrated Project will capture and supply flare gas to generate electricity and treat seawater to manage pressure in oil wells in Iraq’s Basra region.
