A newly formed global coalition, Carbon Measures, aims to develop a ledger-based carbon accounting framework and champion market-based solutions to drive emissions reduction.
The freely accessible online platform is the latest in a series of maps designed to reveal the continent’s untapped geothermal potential.
This paper focuses on developing a model that can be used in an automated, end-to-end flare-smoke detection, alert, and distribution-control solution that leverages existing flare closed-circuit television cameras at manufacturing facilities.

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 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.
