Decarbonization
TotalEnergies signed off for 30% operated stakes in the Lang Lebah and B14 gas fields offshore Sarawak on the sidelines of ADIPEC in Abu Dhabi, while also highlighting methane-reduction partnerships in Angola, India, and Southeast Asia.
This SPE technical section editorial synthesizes six technical themes shaping CO2 transport and storage and interprets them through a petroleum engineering capability lens.
The Pawnee Carbon Sequestration Project, which would use a repurposed well, is planned to capture and store up to 400,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide, with first injection targeted for early 2027.
-
The $1-billion carbon capture project in Texas is revived after a 3-year hiatus. -
Government and industry leaders support the oil and gas industry's role in the energy transition.
-
The Habshan project aims to capture and sequester 1.5 million tonnes of carbon dioxide per year.
-
While innovative solutions are being examined for decarbonization, there is one topic that is rarely emphasized as a key driver in the path toward a more-sustainable future—brownfield optimization.
-
Wave power plus a subsea battery can be a reliable source for subsea operations, to a point.
-
Understanding the subsurface is crucial to the success of carbon capture and storage, and digital solutions are essential for an accurate analysis of the subsurface being considered.
-
Norwegian energy company Equinor has acquired a 25% stake in the Bayou Bend CCS project from Houston-based Carbonvert.
-
Meeting the energy demands of today while advancing a lower-carbon energy future requires policy support, innovative approaches, capital investments, and time.
-
Thailand's coal mining giant Banpu said it has signed an agreement to launch a third carbon capture and sequestration project in the US.
-
Decades of experience injecting fluids into the ground has revealed a fundamental truth: No two injection sites are the same. A thorough understanding of site-specific conditions is essential to ensure safe and secure long-term subsurface disposal of carbon dioxide.
