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 Los Angeles City Council voted to ban new oil and gas wells in the country’s second most populous city and phase out existing wells over a period of 5 years. -
The study assessed the CO2 footprint and NO2 emissions for different drill-cuttings treatment alternatives. The values were then used to create an emissions calculator that can be applied to projects to clarify the actual potential for emissions reduction within the drilling-waste-management process.

The Gulf of Mexico explorer is building off its offshore learnings to scoop up early carbon capture and sequestrations projects on the US Gulf Coast.
-
The US government has made more than $1 billion available to qualified states. The program is part of the recently passed infrastructure law.
-
The facility will be a commercial-scale CO2 sequestration hub in the DJ Basin.
-
The new 165-MW facility uses flare gas from the adjacent Sarqala field to generate power for local use.

EDF and Carbon Mapper find more than two dozen facilities producing the same near-term climate pollution as about 500,000 passenger vehicles.
-
Subsidies lapse while others take hold in a bid to bolster offshore wind energy capacity around the globe.

Equinor will use the semisubmersible rig Transocean Enabler, which is already under contract, for the work planned for later this year.
