Energy transition
Experience in subsurface production and lift design is shaping a new generation of geothermal operations built for reliability and scalability.
This study identifies critical knowledge gaps in wellbore integrity and underscores areas that require further investigation, providing insights into how wellbores must evolve to meet the technical demands of the energy transition.
This paper explores the evolving role of the digital petroleum engineer, examines the core technologies they use, assesses the challenges they face, and projects future industry trends.

The USGS has said up to 19 million tons of lithium resource is contained in the briny waters of the Smackover formation in Arkansas.
-
Wood Mackenzie analysis projects a full repeal of the Inflation Reduction Act is unlikely, while industry proponents urge permitting overhaul and loosening of burdensome regulations.
-
Speaking at this year's ADIPEC, leaders from BP, Shell, Petronas, ADNOC, and Eni said the energy transition must become profitable and that AI will likely play a key role.

This paper describes a project in the heavy oil Captain field in the UK sector of the North Sea in which reduced environmental impact dovetails with improved economics.
-
This paper aims to close some of the many knowledge gaps that exist in the field of drilling CO₂ storage wells, a task that is expected to involve handling an influx of CO₂ into the drilling fluid.
-
The road to a low-carbon world is paved with more than just shiny new facilities and the promise to deliver impressive CO₂ reductions from the atmosphere. Without the software to site, monitor, and maintain those facilities, the drive for net zero would be stuck in neutral.
-
What we’ve learned about faster drilling in oil and gas applied just as well to geothermal development—until we reached The Geysers.
-
Undergraduate education in petroleum engineering has survived the latest downturn in the industry, and enrollment has started to show an uptick in numbers. However, a different trend is evident in graduate training and academic research: the number of researchers being trained in oil and gas topics is drastically dropping.
-
SponsoredTesting new drilling technology in a controlled and monitored environment before it is launched to its full extent in the field—that is what the Rijswijk Center for Sustainable Geo-energy is all about.

With finite oil reserves, infinite innovation will allow the Permian to endure.
