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.

One of the problems with geothermal is that the rock that is hot enough to create the steam needed to run a power plant is also capable of destroying drilling hardware. -
Oil and gas companies play important roles in the global push for energy security and carbon reduction. Here’s how they can excel at both.
-
Among the outcomes from COP27 that SPE will be discussing in future meetings and publications are the participation of the oil industry in the conference, decarbonization vs. reduction, and attempts to phase out petroleum. Also, read about how SPE Energy Stream selects and presents live and on-demand programming.

Denbury acquires carbon-storage land in the South, Baker Hughes forms a new wells consortium, and Chevron and BP expand their investments. Hydrogen takes center stage across the globe, while the international energy transition makes strides toward its goals.
-
The two companies said they will work together to try to find the best places to develop geothermal energy and advance the necessary technologies to commercial scale.
-
Chevron and Occidental plan to launch separate projects to help secure the commercial future of geothermal development in the US.
-
Leveraging its existing natural gas interests, plus renewables potential in Egypt and Mauritania, BP is now factoring in Africa to realize its global ambitions as a hydrogen producer.
-
A breakthrough fusion demonstration at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory produced more energy than it used—a historic first.
-
The authors of this paper discuss an integrated cloud-based work flow aimed at evaluating the cost-effectiveness of adopting geothermal production in low- to medium-enthalpy systems.
