Carbon capture and storage
The first phase of the Norwegian project is expected to receive its first carbon dioxide this year, with the second phase slated to start operations in late 2028.
This paper introduces a novel optimization framework to address CO2 injection strategies under geomechanical risks using a Fourier neural operator-based deep-learning model.
Industry leaders say they believe oil and gas will continue to play a pivotal role in the energy mix in the lengthening energy transition timeline.

Reducing greenhouse-gas emissions with geologic carbon storage will require a new way to model rock physics. -
Government grants and tax incentives will drive carbon capture, storage, and/or utilization projects in the next decade as the industry seeks profitable business model.

Last month in North Dakota, over coffee and kuchen, my friend Dick shared his challenges with vague offers for leasing his pore space. As legal rulings and tax credits complicate the landscape, landowners face a murky world of deals. How can a proposed deal be determined as good or bad?

Despite more than 3 decades of intense focus on emissions issues, global emissions have only increased instead of going down. It’s imperative to question the efficacy, premises, practicality, and overlooked hurdles of current approaches.

An economic analysis of a wellbore methodology in natural gas fields that uses gasification of methane within the wellbore (not within the reservoir) for hydrogen production while incorporating simultaneous sequestration of carbon. This new methodology offers significant energy and cost savings in addition to zero carbon being produced to the surface.
