The Oil and Gas Climate Initiative (OGCI) and nonprofit Carbon Mapper announced they are teaming up to launch a new collaboration aimed at accelerating practical and measurable reductions in methane emissions from the oil and gas industry.
The tools to reduce flaring are well within reach, but the results will depend on a long-term commitment by operators and governments.
Geothermal development is gaining steam and entering a transformative era, driven by breakthroughs in adapting and improving on engineering, drilling, completion, and production technologies to the efficient extraction of heat from the Earth.

This paper describes development of technology with the capability to combust flare gases with a heating value up to 50% lower than existing flare-tip technology. -
This paper describes a chemical-free process with a small footprint designed to capture exhaust from natural gas drive compressors and supporting gas-fueled production equipment.
-
The partnership seeks to shift the economics of carbon capture across high-emitting industrial sectors.
-
The department says the four areas, totaling 410,000 acres, have the potential to power 1.2 million homes.
-
The availability of robust, measurement-informed emissions information across global supply chains is critical to the success of any target-based methane policy. Yet very few countries can provide robust data on emissions intensity across natural gas value chains.
-
The two companies have formed an S-Hub consortium to evaluate and develop a cross-border carbon capture and storage project for reducing carbon dioxide emissions in Singapore.
-
The bureau estimates that the project, previously known as Vineyard Wind South, would generate up to 2,600 MW of electricity, enough to power more than 900,000 homes.
-
One area where the untapped potential of geothermal energy has been realized is in harnessing thermal energy from abandoned or inactive oil and gas wells. Such wells could be exploited for electricity generation or direct use through well repurposing.
-
The company has added a new Southeast Asia carbon storage study to its growing library of carbon capture, use, and storage opportunities.
-
The areas are expected to have the potential to supply 2.4 GW of clean renewable energy.
