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 provides an overview of a geothermal assessment project completed to assess geothermal energy resources in and around an operational high-pressure/high-temperature field on the UK Continental Shelf.

One area where the untapped potential of geothermal energy has been realized is in harnessing thermal energy from abandoned or inactive oil and gas wells. Such wells could be exploited for electricity generation or direct use through well repurposing.
-
The long, successful history of various metallurgies in EOR wells has been cited as sufficient to allow the same completions for CCS injection wells. The lack of actual data on the long-term performance of these alloys in EOR wells in combination with the more-stringent requirements for Class VI wells suggests otherwise.

Artificial intelligence is increasingly being used to assist in the development of materials, including metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), to advance carbon capture technologies. Researchers assembled more than 120,000 new MOF candidates within 30 minutes.

This paper aims to analyze the relevance of wind and solar energy for the supply of artificial lift systems on offshore platforms in the Brazilian equatorial region.

SponsoredWith almost three-quarters of the global greenhouse gas emissions coming from the energy sector, there is a heavy burden and a huge responsibility on the shoulders of all countries of the world to transform the energy sector to be cleaner and greener by eliminating these emissions.

With a successful pilot under its belt, Thailand's national oil company is planning a bigger production unit.
-
The company has added a new Southeast Asia carbon storage study to its growing library of carbon capture, use, and storage opportunities.

While there are many physical hazards present in offshore environments, such as noise pollution, vibration, radiation, and thermal extremes, oil and gas companies must stay committed to promoting employee safety with regular maintenance checks, ongoing training programs and a continued focus on employee health.
