This paper presents a physics-informed machine learning method that enhances the accuracy of pressure transient analysis, predicting reservoir properties to enhance waste slurry injection and waste disposal.
This paper presents a novel methodology for assessing the rapid mineral carbonation of carbon dioxide through geochemical interactions with carbon-, magnesium-, and iron-rich minerals abundant in geological formations.
This paper presents a novel workflow with multiobjective optimization techniques to assess the integration of pressure-management methodologies for permanent geological carbon dioxide storage in saline aquifers.

The authors introduce a novel framework combining dynamic mode decomposition, a data-driven model-reduction technique, with direct data assimilation to streamline the calibration of carbon-dioxide plume evolution models. -
Geothermal systems, which rely on extracting heat from deep within the Earth, face many of the same technical challenges that oil and gas operators have tackled for decades. Geothermal development can be advanced efficiently and economically by applying proven oil and gas technologies.
-
The companies have announced they will work together to integrate geothermal well engineering and project delivery globally.

A magnitude 5.0 quake was followed by a magnitude 4.7 temblor, both in Culberson County in West Texas, an area that is already being watched by the Texas Railroad Commission, the state's oil regulator, because of a jump in seismic activities.

A new study finds that, of the roughly 15 million tonnes of methane coming from onshore oil and gas activities in the continental US annually, 70% comes from smaller, dispersed sources emitting less than 100 kg of methane per hour and 30% of emissions are from sites releasing less than 10 kg per hour.

This article explores three key themes for the oil and gas sector: the evolution of methane regulation at the state and federal levels, a preliminary forecast of why and how methane regulation will continue, and practical ways the oil and gas sector can prepare for enhanced enforcement scrutiny.
-
The companies said they plan to work together on developing geopressured geothermal systems for low-carbon energy storage and geothermal power generation.
-
The Texas Railroad Commission is revisiting the state’s primary oil and gas waste regulations, which were last updated in 1984, to better align them with modern industry practices and rising demands for stronger environmental protections.

The plant is designed to capture up to 100,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide annually for the Netherlands-based sustainable energy supplier Twence.
-
The first-of-its-kind map highlights areas of interest for this potential source of energy and chemical supply.
