With millions of wells having been drilled in the US since the beginning of the oil age, the land is pocked with old, unused wellbores. For most, repurposing is a pipe dream. Plugging is the best option.
This guest editorial examines how the most commonly used and cited methane emissions metric can create a misleading picture of upstream gas-handling performance for both the public and industry professionals.
Spain has granted permits covering a swath of the mountain range to Mantle8 for natural hydrogen and helium exploration a month after France granted the company similar permits.

The revised report provides upstream oil and gas operators with a framework and guidelines to help select and deploy methane emissions detection and quantification technologies.
-
This paper introduces a novel optimization framework to address CO2 injection strategies under geomechanical risks using a Fourier neural operator-based deep-learning model.
-
This paper analyses the Global Biodiversity Framework and its relevance to the transitioning energy system, documenting the work that has been completed and that which is still ongoing.
-
The agency said it wants to modernize the rules and expand the potential uses for produced water.
-
As part of a subnational climate coalition, the state is moving forward with a satellite data project to track methane emissions.
-
The move by the US Congress and the White House is part of a broader effort to overturn the Inflation Reduction Act passed in 2022.
-
This article is the second of a two-part series on produced-water management in the Gulf of Mexico and covers four themes: equipment, process configuration, operations, and effluent quality.
-
The new burner, created with the help of machine learning and additive manufacturing, promises high methane destruction efficiency and combustion stability even in windy conditions.
-
This paper aims to investigate the use of an optimization workflow to maximize both hydrogen storage and the net present value to obtain an optimal reservoir development strategy.
