HSE & Sustainability
This paper identifies opportunities and risks associated with repurposing an offshore oil and gas platform for green hydrogen production. Various technical scenarios were investigated for the case study platform, and their profitability was determined using economic calculations. In addition, all the submodels were compared with standard decommissioning costs for reco…
The solvent-based technology involves a modular treatment process that uses a proprietary catalyst designed to safely and sustainably remove hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) from sour gas streams using either produced water or an alkaline water as the treating media.
Emissions management covers a wide array of topics such as carbon capture, use, and storage; emissions monitoring; flare management; methods to improve operational efficiency; carbon accounting; and the effect of emissions management on global and local economics. The papers published in the past year span all these subcategories.

The companies plan to capture CO2 from Linde's hydrogen liquefication plant in the Houston area and inject it into multiple storage sites.
-
The rule would require publicly traded companies to report not only their greenhouse-gas emissions but also their approach to managing climate change, likely setting up a long legal fight.

Will CO2 storage resources increase the valuation of oil and gas companies and counterbalance environmental, social, and governance pressure?
-
The two companies will focus on carbon capture technology along with carbon utilization and hydrogen production.

This paper presents an optimization project that was implemented in the Khazzan and Ghazeer fields of Oman to optimize the post-fracturing cleanup and testing period to reduce hydrocarbon flaring and CO2 emissions as well as the testing cost without compromising the overall well cleanup and testing objectives.
