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.
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.
The tools to reduce flaring are well within reach, but the results will depend on a long-term commitment by operators and governments.
-
This study recommends favoring the combustion of ammonia over hydrogen for the purpose of reducing CO₂ and nitrogen emissions.
-
Real-time wellhead monitoring aims to help Romania meet new EU methane emission regulations.
-
Iraq’s Gas Growth Integrated Project aims to increase electricity generation by capturing flare gas collected from three southern oil fields. A desalination project will use treated seawater to maintain well pressures.
-
The agency’s administrator said the program “does nothing to improve air quality.”
-
The project is expected to recover up to 300 MMscf/D of flared gas. Plans call for the recovered gas to be converted into treated dry gas, liquefied petroleum gas, and condensate for domestic use and export.
-
This research aims to harness the advanced capabilities of artificial intelligence, specifically deep learning and large language models, to develop a comprehensive system for detecting and explaining oil spills.
-
This paper presents a physics-informed machine learning method that enhances the accuracy of pressure transient analysis, predicting reservoir properties to enhance waste slurry injection and waste disposal.
-
This paper presents a novel methodology for assessing the rapid mineral carbonation of carbon dioxide through geochemical interactions with carbon-, magnesium-, and iron-rich minerals abundant in geological formations.
-
This paper presents a novel workflow with multiobjective optimization techniques to assess the integration of pressure-management methodologies for permanent geological carbon dioxide storage in saline aquifers.
