The CCUS eMentoring Program connects mentors and mentees, offering valuable insights, networking opportunities, and career advancement for both. Join the CCUS eMentorship program to share knowledge, grow together, and shape the future of CCUS.
Decarbonation has maintained its attraction, as observed from the past year of papers reviewed for this feature. Regarding CCS, challenges have been addressed through various techniques, including laboratory experiments; modeling studies; and field-scale application testing, monitoring, and risk assessment; as well as value chain and economic analysis.
The authors present an efficient workflow using an embedded discrete fracture model to simulate carbon-dioxide flow by use of conductive faults.

The 2025 update to SPE’s CO₂ Storage Resources Management System (SRMS) is now available. Following a 2-year review, the updated framework—endorsed by six professional societies—builds on the original 2017 system to support consistent classification, evaluation, and reporting of CO₂ storage resources. A key change in the 2025 SRMS Update is the inclusion of CO₂ EOR as…

The full potential of data can only be realized when it is viewed not in isolation but as part of the dynamic triad of hydrocarbons, the data, and the people who interpret it and act on it.
