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.
This study explores the carbon-capture and mineralization potential of ultramafic rock powders when exposed to flue gases generated from combustion of crude oil and mesquite-derived charcoal.

This paper aims to emphasize the importance of decision-making based on quantitative monitoring outputs, from both a business perspective and an ecosystem-service perspective, in future offshore projects. -
This first of a two-part series provides guidelines for designing and operating advanced produced-water systems on offshore platforms, covering fluid characterization, chemical treatment, equipment, process configuration, operations, and effluent quality.
-
This paper describes a new application that leverages advanced machine-learning techniques in conjunction with metocean forecasts to predict vessel motions and thruster loads.
-
This paper describes installation of autonomous inflow control valves in the Bretaña Norte field in Peru, enabling effective water control even though the trial well was placed in the flank, close to the oil/water contact.
-
This update highlights efforts to electrify oil and gas assets and deliver clean energy to remote, underserved communities. But the big question remains: Can we really achieve net zero emissions by 2050?
-
The facility for open-source carbon capture, transport, and storage has been completed.
-
Wearable technology aims to take advantage of hands-free functionality to allow workers to perform their duties while maintaining communication remotely with the control room.
-
The lawsuit claims federal regulators have undermined the Texas oil and gas industry by misusing environmental law, negatively affecting drilling and production.
-
IPIECA and IOGP have released two new guides—a recommended practice for drug testing and a guidance for managing infectious disease outbreaks.
-
Collaboration and technology will help the industry meet its toughest challenges, experts said during the opening session at ATCE.
