Decarbonization
Sustainable energy continues to grow as a focus for reliable, affordable, and secure energy as seen from the past year of papers reviewed for this feature. Three primary areas are being reported on heavily: carbon use for enhanced oil recovery, geological hydrogen discovery, and critical minerals from the subsurface.
The US federal government is working to stymie offshore wind power, but proponents aren’t going quietly. Armed with data, they are taking on a sea of misinformation and hostility to defend the burgeoning resource in the US, while the rest of the world moves ahead briskly.
This work describes a study in which distributed data parallel training, paired with a node-local caching pipeline, enabled efficient multigraphics-processing-unit scaling for a CO₂-storage graph-neural-network surrogate while maintaining generalization.

The meeting of leaders, experts, and stakeholders emphasized the urgency of addressing greenhouse-gas emissions to mitigate climate change and align with global sustainability goals. -
The test marks a milestone in the Poseidon CCS project, which aims to store carbon dioxide in the depleted gas reservoir below the Leman development in the southern North Sea.
-
The storage permits, the first of their kind, allow the Stratos facility to move forward with plans to capture and store up to 500,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year.
-
This paper aims to provide insights to address the challenge of identifying the optimal point within the gas-processing lineup for recovering a high-purity CO₂ stream suitable for sequestration.
-
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.
-
The agreement aims to bring the efforts of both companies together to advance digital-enabled carbon-free floating power generation.
-
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.
-
Technology and partnerships play a pivotal role in how the oil industry finds and produces energy from frontier regions and brownfields, both now and in the future.
-
Transitioning to a low-carbon economy demands large-scale CO2, natural gas, and hydrogen storage. In this context, the application of AI/ML technology to uncover geochemical, microbial, geomechanical, and hydraulic mechanisms related to storage and solve complicated history-matching and optimization problems, thereby enhancing storage efficiency, has been prominently …
