Energy transition
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 Russian/Ukrainian conflict has shown that a division between energy-transition rhetoric and reality can lead to profound global consequences by creating an imbalance in nations’ access to diverse flows of energy. The Energy Basket composition is determined by the demands and fluidity of the grid, as opposed to high-minded rhetoric. -
Unique partnerships forward both conventional renewables and new technologies to close the gap for a carbon-free future across the globe.

Shell’s venture capital subsidiary has acquired Sprng Energy, one of India’s largest renewables platforms, thus tripling its operating wind and solar power assets.

Many hurdles for marinization of green hydrogen production already have been overcome in the offshore oil and wind sectors. A fresh set of challenges, however, will rise around developing and deploying hydrogen production facilities offshore.

The partnership of Subsea 7 and Flasc has a plan to use out-of-service pipelines as pressure vessels in a hydro-pneumatic energy storage concept.

The assumption of lower emissions from natural gas only holds true when the methane leaks and flaring are addressed. Mitigation of methane emissions offers an opportunity for the oil and gas industry to drastically reduce overall emissions that are typically reported on a CO2-equivalent basis. Some producers opt to showcase their good performance via voluntary certifi…

Partnerships flourish in offshore wind, while Equinor expands its renewables drive and solar companies in the US come together to shore up the supply chain ahead of increased demand.

Using CO2 as the geothermal power fluid to generate electricity from low-temperature abandoned hydrocarbon wells can help reduce well costs and optimize energy production. In this paper, a previously developed coupled well/reservoir model is extended to study the effects of fluid properties on thermal output.

As the world tries to shift to renewable energy, the war in Ukraine has underscored the struggle for the minerals and metals required. The conflict illustrates that nations that pursue net-zero strategies will have to contend and account for “greenwalls,” energy-transition deterrents created by crises or geopolitical events.

The company has renamed itself Orrön Energy and will be a pure-play renewables business. Lundin's E&P business was transferred to Aker BP, closing a $14-billion deal announced in December 2021.
