Energy transition
The challenge is to ensure that changes to major accident hazards are properly managed, whether the changes occur by adapting conventional industry operations to lower carbon or by introducing innovative technologies.
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.
The company’s millimeter wave drilling system is approaching a depth of 1 km at its Central Texas site. The recent funding is earmarked for Project Obsidian in Central Oregon, which Quaise calls the world’s first commercial superhot geothermal power plant.

This guest editorial addresses the need for high-temperature directional drilling technologies as the number of rigs used to develop next-generation geothermal wells is set to rise in the coming years. -
This paper explores the development of direct-lithium-extraction technologies designed to recover lithium from unconventional feedstocks.
-
This study applies Monte Carlo simulation and an XGBoost regression model to assess the influence of various formations, geologic provinces, tectonic-plate types, and boundary conditions on hydrogen concentrations.
-
The US federal government is working to stymie offshore wind power, but proponents aren’t going quietly. Armed with data, they are taking on a sea of misinformation and hostility to defend the burgeoning resource in the US, while the rest of the world moves ahead briskly.
-
The Pinnington project in North Texas is the company’s largest solar project in the state and brings Repsol’s renewable energy generation capacity in the US to greater than 2 GW.
-
The new guidelines were released prior to reports that enhanced geothermal developer Fervo Energy experienced a blowout in Utah with no reported injuries.
-
Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico have formed the Mountain West Geothermal Consortium to turn geothermal energy into gigawatts of baseload power.
-
This paper presents a case study of oriented tubing-conveyed perforation followed by an acidizing operation to overcome technical challenges posed by a depleted reservoir targeted for a carbon capture, utilization, and storage project.
-
The collaboration aims to provide a dedicated land rig for geothermal wells in the US.
-
The Houston-based enhanced geothermal developer scored $1.9 billion in an initial public offering, positioning it to expand projects in Utah and Nevada.
