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.

This paper provides an overview of strategies, approaches, technologies, and tools that enable companies to prioritize social-good, natural processes and restoration of natural resources as part of business and operations. -
A consortium of 20 organizations, REX-CO2, including research institutions, operators, and regulatory authorities, studied mature wells in two areas of the UK Continental Shelf. Subsurface data were evaluated and verified the wells’ potential suitability for both reuse and CO2 injection and storage.

The CO2 capture capacity of all CCS facilities under development increased 44% over the past 12 months, bringing the total capacity of those projects to 244 mtpa of CO2.

Data from member companies reveals an increased intensity in greenhouse-gas emissions for 2021. And, while flaring increased, too, long-term trends on that practice are clearly moving downward.
-
Built to help scientists understand how dust affects climate, the Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation can also pinpoint emissions of the potent greenhouse gas.

Investors say they value a company’s data on sustainability almost as much as they value its financial data. They need to be able to trust it as much, too.
-
The company says its methane intensity has gone down by more than 50% since 2016.
