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.

Tropical storms severely affect oil and gas production in the Gulf of Mexico, especially during the storm season from June to December. Offshore well managers often need to shut down operations and evacuate the facility because of storm alerts. The purpose of this paper is to determine the effect of storms on production by quantifying metrics such as downtime days and…
