Energy transition
This study investigates the potential for in-situ hydrogen generation from hydrocarbons using in-situ combustion, with particular emphasis on the role of kerogen content and heating mode.
The new publication, created with the support of and in partnership with Project InnerSpace, looks at all aspects of the burgeoning geothermal industry.
The GRMS system of standardization and classification for geothermal resources, led by a coalition of stakeholders in collaboration with Project InnerSpace and the Society of Petroleum Engineers, will be published in November.

SPE’s professional membership has an important role to play in mitigating climate change concerns and in developing new low- or no-carbon sources of energy. We offer a forum for presenting and disseminating scientifically vetted technical information about what can be and is being done by our members. -
A decade ago, SPE defined key R&D and technology challenges for the industry. To address the more uncertain environment of the 2020s and beyond, we have updated the grand challenges via a January 2023 SPE workshop.

A look at recent first‑quarter results reminds us that there is no such thing as a constant trend in our industry. Continual recalibration of companies’ activities aim to obtain positive financial results in the traditional oil and gas business while devoting efforts in a practical way to both mitigate climate change issues and to develop new forms of energy.
