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…
This paper presents a flexible, highly cost- and energy-efficient method of gas separation and CO₂ capture from many different gas mixtures with a large range of CO₂ concentrations.
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 facility will be a commercial-scale CO2 sequestration hub in the DJ Basin.
-
The paper presents a system for separation of water in downhole horizontal wells in which the water produced from the well is not lifted to the surface but reinjected into the reservoir.
-
The machine-learning techniques applied aim to deliver a prediction model based on both simulation and real-time field data. The model tracks and monitors system key performance indicators.
-
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.
-
The Texas Railroad Commission has designated a new swath of the Permian as a Seismic Response Area after a series of earthquakes linked to water-disposal wells rattled the area.
-
Subsidies lapse while others take hold in a bid to bolster offshore wind energy capacity around the globe.
-
Exxon sets its sights on zero, while Thyssenkrupp aims squarely at hydrogen. The wind blows the world over, and the struggle to grab carbon and put it back in the ground continues. Are you trying to stay up to date about developments aimed at energy-transition efforts in our industry? This roundup of news recaps some recent announcements.
-
The French oil and gas giant has decided to pull out of Myanmar following a coup that took place in early 2021.
