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 study aims to systematically assess casing integrity and corrosion risks associated with CO2 injection in oil-recovery operations.

Hydrogen from fossil fuels is not only an easier way to pivot to clean energy than going full-on renewables; it could also establish new businesses and generate tremendous revenue by leveraging the oil and gas industry’s existing knowledge and expertise. -
Despite the global downturn, the long-term transition to net zero presents a major opportunity to create new multibillion industries based around the North Sea. Cross-sector collaboration and major state/private sector intervention, together with strong leadership, will be key.

The Hydrogen Offshore Production project identifies an alternative to decommissioning by providing reuse options for offshore infrastructure. It aims to prove the feasibility of decentralized hydrogen generation, storage, and distribution to provide a bulk hydrogen solution.

Two technologies that may play a part in the decarbonization of the UK energy business are carbon capture, use, and storage and the use of hydrogen for energy transportation and storage. This approach builds on the UK’s gas-network infrastructure, which can be repurposed to avoid becoming stranded.
-
This paper presents novel approaches to carbon abatement using petroleum that have a strong chance to succeed in fulfilling technological and economic goals.
-
The complete paper describes an advanced Rankine cycle process-based system that converts waste heat into usable electrical power to improve the efficiency of gas-compression stations on gas-production platforms and pipelines.
-
The White House review of proposed rules for an expanded credit for capturing and storing carbon dioxide resulted in changes that give the IRS more time to take back the credits in case of carbon leaks.
-
The cement industry is exploring carbon capture technology to reduce its carbon footprint.
-
Goal is to reduce plant emissions profile and boost sustainability in production.
-
Sleipner’s share in net-zero emissions savings will be more than 150,000 tonnes per year.
