Carbon capture and storage
Moji Karimi, CEO of Houston-based startup Cemvita Factory, talks about the status of oil and gas investments in the emergent technology arena of carbon capture, utilization, and sequestration.
Companies join forces in carbon capture project near LNG facility.
The international consultancy has agreed with Russia’s Rosneft to evaluate the state-owned major’s carbon capture potential.

While CCS and CCUS become more ensconced in oil and gas energy-transition strategy, one major project has fallen short of targets. Infrared sensor technology could fill a crucial gap in halting methane leaks. And a geothermal startup gets a big vote of confidence from industry and celebrities. -
Occidental Petroleum is planning a carbon-intensive future with revenues from oil expected to be put toward pulling carbon dioxide out of the air.

SPE papers and events that covered decarbonization during the past year show that a wide variety of solutions already exist that avoid, reduce, replace, offset, or sequester greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It is clear, therefore, that decarbonization technologies will now be as important as 4D seismic, horizontal wells, and hydraulic fracturing.

Texas-based independent exploration and production company Talos Energy and UK-based clean energy group Storegga Geotechnologies have formed an exclusive joint venture to source, evaluate, and develop carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects along the US Gulf Coast and in the Gulf of Mexico. Areas under consideration include state and federal waters offshore Texas, L…
