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.

Polish oil company will take an additional 2 mtpa for 20 years. -
Purchasing carbon offsets is a widespread means of attempting to meet carbon-reduction and net-zero emissions goals across many industries. Also widespread is the increasing scrutiny of the practice. How “real” are the offsets? How are they quantified and verified, and by whom?
-
The company’s 2021 Energy Transition Outlook says the Earth likely will miss the 2°C goal of the Paris Agreement and the window to get back on track is closing rapidly.
-
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.
