This paper details a data-driven methodology applied in Indonesia to enhance flare-emission visibility and enable targeted reduction strategies by integrating real-time process data with engineering models.
This study presents the development of a biodegradable surfactant developed using principles of environmentally friendly chemistry from natural sources. The goal is to develop an effective and environmentally friendly surfactant that can emulsify and disperse oil to reduce its effects on marine environments.
This study ascertains the capital expenditure and operating expenditure associated with the reuse of existing facilities, specifically regarding a carbon capture and storage project being prepared in South Korea.

While uncertainties remain for the coming year, there is also optimism for the upstream industry, a welcome prospect following two sharp downcycles in less than 6 years. -
This paper presents the challenges and results of performing offshore drilling-waste management in a highly environmentally sensitive marine environment and UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve offshore Abu Dhabi. The solution required both thermal-treatment technology and cuttings-reinjection technology and became the world’s first single-source operation for this equipmen…

The sheer expanse of the deep sea and the technological challenges of working in an extreme environment make these depths difficult to access and study. Scientists know more about the surface of the moon than the deep seafloor. The Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute is leveraging advancements in robotic technologies to address this disparity.
