This paper reviews a proof-of-concept project in which surplus casing pipes were used in the fabrication of purposefully designed artificial reef structures for the enhancement of biodiversity and commercial fisheries.
This study aims to systematically assess casing integrity and corrosion risks associated with CO2 injection in oil-recovery operations.
The US federal government is working to stymie offshore wind power, but proponents aren’t going quietly. Armed with data, they are taking on a sea of misinformation and hostility to defend the burgeoning resource in the US, while the rest of the world moves ahead briskly.

The objective of this study is to use expired medications as green corrosion inhibitors that can be used during stimulation treatments. Because the medications are expired and not fit for human consumption, the cost is inherently low. -
This article explores the implementation of artificial intelligence vision for leak monitoring automation in the oil and gas industry and its role in improving safety standards, operational efficiency, and environmental performance.

The plant is designed for a capture capacity of up to 36,000 tons of CO₂ per year once in full swing by filtering CO₂ from the air and storing it permanently underground. The company is also developing multiple megaton hubs in the US.

Companies are rushing to inject carbon into Louisiana’s ground, but will thousands of abandoned wells allow it to escape?

The revisions to the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program aim to bring greater transparency and accountability for methane emissions from oil and natural gas facilities.

Offshore Energies UK and Xodus are launching an offshore nesting bird census to get a better understanding of how the animals use oil and gas structures in an effort to protect them.

The volume reduction of naturally occurring radioactive material waste with indirectly heated vacuum distillation has been overlooked in research as a viable treatment option. This paper describes several key assessment factors that will allow a more detailed understanding of the benefits of that option.

SponsoredThe oil and gas industry makes up 40% of all anthropogenic methane emissions because of leaks at the wellsite. Fortunately, the well pad is often where methane emissions are easiest to address through a mitigation strategy of optimized maintenance and process control—all enabled by instrumentation insight.
