A newly formed global coalition, Carbon Measures, aims to develop a ledger-based carbon accounting framework and champion market-based solutions to drive emissions reduction.
The freely accessible online platform is the latest in a series of maps designed to reveal the continent’s untapped geothermal potential.
This paper focuses on developing a model that can be used in an automated, end-to-end flare-smoke detection, alert, and distribution-control solution that leverages existing flare closed-circuit television cameras at manufacturing facilities.

This paper discusses how methane detection from oil and gas infrastructure using remote sensing technologies enables operators to quantify and minimize the emissions while gaining insight and an understanding of their operations through data analytics. -
The proposed sale notice consists of more than 300,000 acres in three designated areas offshore Louisiana and Texas.

Wood Mackenzie said "advantaged barrels" that are cheap to extract and with low emissions represent less than a third of untapped resources.
-
Recently published research suggests that carbon dioxide stored underground will stay there for millions of years.
-
Because diversity of aquatic animals is an indicator of safe and environmentally friendly operations, a pilot system has been launched that uses an underwater camera and artificial intelligence to observe aquatic animals around a platform.
-
Industry consortium pilot project successfully demonstrates the significant potential of satellite technology in methane emissions detection and mitigation.
