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.

The list of potential bidders for Norway’s first tender for offshore wind farm licenses is long. More than two dozen companies and joint ventures from throughout Europe are likely to participate in the tender planned for later this year. -
Drilling at remote sites comes with challenges, not least of which is drilling-waste management. Drill cuttings traditionally are the focus of attention, and a solution is available to treat this waste stream at source. In many projects, however, slop waste and, in some cases, conductor drilling waste is also generated. This paper outlines how a single process using m…

No single silver bullet exists to wipe out methane emissions generated by upstream oil and gas activities. Experts at a recent forum discussed an array of technologies and strategies to help the industry make smart decisions to measure, monitor, and mitigate emissions of the potent greenhouse gas.

Carbon credits, carbon taxes, and emissions trading systems are familiar terms in discussions about global warming, the Paris Agreement, and net-zero emissions goals. The EU is moving to act on an addition to the glossary of climate policy: carbon tariff.

On 20 April 2010, a kick and blowout in the Gulf of Mexico resulted in a series of explosions that killed 11 people and started an environmental disaster. Now, 11 years later, government and industry continue the drive to improve safety.
