This paper proposes a shift in the timing of risk modeling to much further back within the job lifecycle, recognizing each function’s role in the mitigation of risk.
This article from the SPE Methane Technical Section features Arvind Ravikumar of the University of Texas at Austin and focuses on how the Energy Emissions Modeling and Data Lab is integrating satellite observations, facility-level measurements, operational data, and emissions inventories into more credible methane accounting for oil and gas systems.
The firm’s latest analysis puts the bulk of the blame on a fragmented supply chain.

This paper aims to demonstrate how virtual reality, a technology that gives the user an immersive 3D experience, is being used as part of major-accident-hazard awareness training and how this has been sustained to provide an innovative, powerful method of ongoing workforce engagement. -
The availability of robust, measurement-informed emissions information across global supply chains is critical to the success of any target-based methane policy. Yet very few countries can provide robust data on emissions intensity across natural gas value chains.

This study explored fatigue levels of workers on swing shifts, where they work day shifts for the first week and roll over to night shifts for the second week.
-
The two companies have formed an S-Hub consortium to evaluate and develop a cross-border carbon capture and storage project for reducing carbon dioxide emissions in Singapore.
-
The bureau estimates that the project, previously known as Vineyard Wind South, would generate up to 2,600 MW of electricity, enough to power more than 900,000 homes.

The free virtual meeting plans to highlight state-of-the-art knowledge on improving safety culture and human/organizational performance in the oil field.
-
The study dove into the quality of life experienced by oil and gas workers in the New Mexico's Permian Basin—the majority of whom are Hispanic New Mexicans. This incorporated the past and present conditions and how the influence of clean energy could shift their career plans moving forward.
-
This paper provides insights into the technical and economic viability of repurposing oil and gas wells for geothermal energy production for direct heating.
-
This paper discusses and evaluates retrofitting abandoned petroleum wells for geothermal applications as a commonly proposed solution to meet the challenge of the capital expenditure required for drilling and completion.
