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.

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.
-
Shell signed a 5-year contract to supply PetroChina with carbon-neutral LNG using carbon credits to offset emissions from Shell’s own emission-reduction project portfolio.
-
Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a new law regulating carbon dioxide emissions as the country strives to fulfill promises to significantly reduce its carbon footprint by 2030.
-
While Schlumberger, Halliburton, and Baker Hughes focus their legacy technology and service portfolios on driving up efficiency, driving down cost, and making current sources of energy less carbon intensive, they diverge on their approaches to scaling up development and deployment of breakthrough clean energy technologies.
-
Natural gas is produced from the ground now, but maybe not forever.
-
The authors write that the road to decarbonization will involve several technologies working in concert, not the use of only one at the expense of others.
-
The author shows that renewable energies are best used in replacing fossil fuels in the power sector, where it has the most effect in reducing CO2 emissions.
-
The authors write that even simple deep-learning architectures can identify a leak using pressure data.
