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.

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.

The US supermajor is said to have struck a deal that may make it a major supplier of lithium, which is needed to expand the US electric vehicle market.
-
Premier Corex and Teverra will be combining their efforts to aggregate data for companies involved in large-scale geothermal projects.
-
SPE Journal has issued a call for papers for the 11th Comparative Solution Project (CSP) Special Issue. Organized by guest editors Anthony Kovscek (Stanford University) and Knut-Andreas Lie (SINTEF), submissions that are both directly and indirectly related to the 11th CSP will be accepted.

One expert says there needs to be a transfer of safety culture from the traditional energy industry to the newer offshoot of renewables.
-
The consortium will leverage the oil and gas industry's 100+ years of experience and technological developments in drilling and subsurface engineering to advance geothermal.
-
The authors of this paper discuss deep closed-loop geothermal systems as an alternative to traditional enhanced geothermal systems for green energy production that is globally scalable and dispatchable.
-
Controversial metals-rich nodules sitting on the seafloor could hold the key to increased battery production needed to support the energy transition.
