The project is expected to recover up to 300 MMscf/D of flared gas. Plans call for the recovered gas to be converted into treated dry gas, liquefied petroleum gas, and condensate for domestic use and export.
This research aims to harness the advanced capabilities of artificial intelligence, specifically deep learning and large language models, to develop a comprehensive system for detecting and explaining oil spills.
The International Energy Agency cited a wave of cancellations and persistent challenges for dropping its projection for annual production of low-emissions hydrogen by 2030 from 49 mtpa to 37 mtpa.

In 2019, the oil and gas industry experienced 25 deaths, according to a new report released by the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers. This compares with 31 fatalities in 2018. -
Future offshore oil and gas fields are likely to be satellite developments that emit less greenhouse gas because they do not require new production platforms. A new computational tool is now enabling the design of longer pipelines that will allow many more fields to be developed as satellites.

A federal court struck down an Obama-era regulation targeting methane leaks from drilling on public lands, arguing that it went beyond the scope of the Bureau of Land Management, which promulgated the rule.

Using a European Space Agency satellite, data analytics firm Kayrros pinpointed global locations of methane emissions and recorded a 32% increase in the overall volume of methane emitted from large leaks compared with the first 8 months of 2019.

Tough talk about World Bank financing for oil and gas is a sign of the growing pressure to squeeze investing in fossil fuels as a way to slash carbon emissions.

Breakwater’s produced-water-recycling facility has the flexibility to recycle, store, or dispose of water. It has already recycled nearly 5 million bbl of produced water in the third quarter of 2020.

As the science has developed, accident-causation models have improved understanding of why accidents happen and how to reduce their likelihood. In more contemporary models, this approach also has been used to improve the understanding of why things go right and how to increase that likelihood.
