This research aims to harness the advanced capabilities of artificial intelligence, specifically deep learning and large language models, to develop a comprehensive system for detecting and explaining oil spills.
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 workflow with multiobjective optimization techniques to assess the integration of pressure-management methodologies for permanent geological carbon dioxide storage in saline aquifers.

One of the most important environmental issues of openpit mining is the closure of mine pit lakes. This article from Mining Engineering provides an account by Gerry Stephenson, who was chief mining engineer of Canmore Mines and was instrumental in the reclamation of Canmore Creek Mine pit lakes. -
Mosaic’s technology uses chemistry to remove carbon dioxide from emissions sources, and the two firms will be looking at how to scale it for industrial use.
-
Scientists have discovered a way to extract hydrogen from oil without releasing greenhouse gases—a move they've hailed as a "silver bullet" for climate issues.
-
The updated document offers an introductory overview of the broad topics of oil spill preparedness and response and provides signposting and hyperlinks to a full range of materials from IPIECA and the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers.

Production from the Hibernia platform was shut down again on 17 August after its second oil spill in a month, while Husky Energy began to ramp up output from the White Rose field following the largest-ever spill off Canada’s easternmost province.
-
An EPA plan would end oversight of methane leaks at oil wells, a move that risks undermining the climate sales pitch for natural gas.
-
Texas regulators rejected a rare challenge to gas flaring in the state after an oil company argued that a flaring ban would force it to shut in wells, damaging the reservoir and reducing future oil production.

Researchers mapped 251 faults in the North Texas home of the Barnett Shale, the birthplace of the shale revolution, finding that wastewater injection there “significantly increases the likelihood for faults to slip.”
