Decarbonization
The AI revolution isn't just digital. This article examines how geology underpins the convergence of AI, energy, carbon management, and the infrastructure powering frontier LLMs.
Winners of Alberta's Drilling Technology Challenge cover a range of technologies from robotics to enhance drilling rig safety to AI-enabled energy management, downhole sensing, well navigation, hybrid power systems, and geothermal energy.
Located along the North Sea, the Humber is expected to play a central role in the UK’s effort to achieve a net-zero emissions status by 2050.

Seven years, and we’re on track to exceed the 1.5°C target established by the Paris Agreement in 2015 to limit global warming by 2030. Instead, we may be turning up the heat to 3.0°C. And in this case, doubling the wager does not hold potential for greater rewards. A recent report addressed the costs of technologies for emissions mitigation and their likelihood of mak…
