Energy transition
New geothermal technical content and programming will highlight knowledge transfer among oil and gas and geothermal professionals.
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.

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.

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.
-
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.
-
What we’ve learned about faster drilling in oil and gas applied just as well to geothermal development—until we reached The Geysers.
-
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.

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.
-
DNV’s Energy Transition Outlook 2024 projects continued growth in solar; slower growth in wind; and declines in coal, oil, and gas, while hydrogen and carbon capture projects are struggling.
