The storage permits, the first of their kind, allow the Stratos facility to move forward with plans to capture and store up to 500,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year.
This article describes a technology combining a compression unit with a flexible line to offer a flaring alternative for transferring hydrocarbons.
This paper describes a deep-learning image-processing model that uses videos captured by a specialized optical gas-imaging camera to detect natural gas leaks.

Data from member companies reveals an increased intensity in greenhouse-gas emissions for 2021. And, while flaring increased, too, long-term trends on that practice are clearly moving downward. -
Built to help scientists understand how dust affects climate, the Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation can also pinpoint emissions of the potent greenhouse gas.
-
The company says its methane intensity has gone down by more than 50% since 2016.
-
Increasingly intense heat waves, wildfires, and droughts are forcing costly adaptations.
-
In the search for leaks, more oil and gas companies are making the argument that ground-based inspections cannot compete with aerial surveys.
-
Experts speaking at a climate conference in London noted that the technology to detect leakages from oil and gas has been ramping up in the past 5 years, making mitigation feasible.

Long recognized as a pillar of US energy production, deepwater Gulf of Mexico could help provide the resources the world needs during the energy transition.
-
The Biden administration seeks to cut the cost of enhanced geothermal systems by 90% by 2035.
-
The Rosmari-Marjoram project will be developed utilizing subsea wells and solar power.
