Decarbonization
The firm’s latest analysis puts the bulk of the blame on a fragmented supply chain.
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.
This paper explores the development of direct-lithium-extraction technologies designed to recover lithium from unconventional feedstocks.

The energy transition was present but not at center stage at recent earnings calls as majors celebrated their improving financial performance. -
China will launch renewables-to-hydrogen projects in Inner Mongolia this autumn intended to transform the coal-bearing region into a renewables hub.
-
This years’ Offshore Technology Conference is full of people working on ways to diversify away from just oil and gas.
-
This paper examines potential new options for the petroleum sector to contribute to emission reductions and the climate debate.
-
Broad consensus is forming on the need for a massive expansion in global carbon capture and storage (CCS) capacity. But what are the uncertainties, bottlenecks, and opportunities in the subsurface that await CCS planners?
-
Greenland may have said “no” to oil and gas, but its vast mineral wealth is up for grabs as the world’s biggest billionaires invest to claim metal reserves needed to manufacture batteries.
-
While CCS and CCUS become more ensconced in oil and gas energy-transition strategy, one major project has fallen short of targets. Infrared sensor technology could fill a crucial gap in halting methane leaks. And a geothermal startup gets a big vote of confidence from industry and celebrities.
-
Occidental Petroleum is planning a carbon-intensive future with revenues from oil expected to be put toward pulling carbon dioxide out of the air.
-
For some, the payoff for going green can be astronomical. Others can rest assured that they will be well positioned in the transition.
-
The world’s largest emissions trading market will probably start slowly.
