A DNV report on decarbonization says the Middle East and North Africa region is expected to become the world’s largest hydrogen exporter by 2060 while maintaining a dominant position in global oil and gas markets.
The planned facility was designed to process 34 MMcf/D of associated gas into fully refined gasoline.
The newly named MTS brings together the full methane ecosystem, end to end—connecting technology, data, operations, and assurance across upstream, midstream, and beyond.

The author shows that renewable energies are best used in replacing fossil fuels in the power sector, where it has the most effect in reducing CO2 emissions.

A 2-year study of a formation used for saltwater disposal in the Bakken may hold promise of decreasing the pressurization of the formation and increasing the reuse of the briny produced water.

The authors write that even simple deep-learning architectures can identify a leak using pressure data.

We need to analyze the carbon intensity of reserves, the potential emissions that are in front of us, not just the carbon intensity of current operations. An engineering solution associated with production forecasts over time offers a framework for thinking through the carbon-emissions issue.

For the entities formerly—and, sometimes, still—known as oilfield service companies, the energy transition presents new business challenges and opportunities. How are they managing?
-
SPE papers and events that covered decarbonization during the past year show that a wide variety of solutions already exist that avoid, reduce, replace, offset, or sequester greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It is clear, therefore, that decarbonization technologies will now be as important as 4D seismic, horizontal wells, and hydraulic fracturing.

The oilfield service giant said its plans to decarbonize are inclusive of Scope 3 emissions, or the emissions generated when customers use its technologies.

This paper describes a project whose objective was to define a costing methodology that showed indicative costs and effects of recordable safety incidents in an organization. This project’s main aim was to raise awareness, through a cost calculator, of occupational health and safety by placing a measurable dollar value to recordable safety incidents.

The US producer is aiming for net-zero greenhouse-gas emissions related to both Scope 1 and Scope 2 categories over the next 3 decades.
