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.

SponsoredThe oil and gas landscape is changing… Innovation to transform the energy future is a new Guide from ABB which addresses the challenges faced by operators as they embrace a new energy ecosystem and gives advice on how to use digitalization to make the transition. -
Even a robust adoption of electric vehicles in the next 2 decades would not eliminate the growth of either global oil consumption or carbon emissions, BP Chief Economist Spencer Dale said at the rollout of the company’s 2018 Energy Outlook.

Fears of peak oil demand are exaggerated, Saudi Aramco’s CEO says, despite recent headlines that advances in electric vehicles and worries about climate change will lead to a drop in global oil and gas use.

Geothermal power offers enormous potential—an inexhaustible supply heat to drive huge electric plants around the clock—but that extreme heat can quickly kill conventional hardware, which led to something new.

The energy industry is in a rapid transition, with growing competitive pressures and the critical long-term need to reduce global carbon emissions, BP Group Chief Executive Bob Dudley said in introducing this year’s BP Energy Outlook.

Even if EVs reach cost and performance parity with conventional combustion engines, a lot of questions remain about how long it will take for consumers to get comfortable that parity is real, and for manufacturers to turn over enough volume to make a big enough impact on the oil industry.

Oil and gas professionals may not consider solar power to be a serious threat, but it is poised to make serious inroads into the heating and cooling market.
-
The world still needs oil and gas, but it is also making room for renewable energy which will change how upstream companies do business.

Oil demand growth from the transportation sector, the linchpin of oil consumption, will slow to a trickle by 2035 and level off, while demand from the petrochemicals sector will become oil’s chief growth driver, the BP 2017 Energy Outlook says.

One person who has given a lot of thought to what the oil and gas industry might look like when it can no longer count on a growing consumption from the transport sector is Iskander Diyashev, an instructor for PetroSkills and a former SPE Director who is serving as an SPE Distinguished Lecturer in 2017–18 for the second time. His current lecture topic is The Future of…
