BlackRock’s Global Infrastructure Partners buys near half stake in Eni CCUS Holding subsidiary.
Researchers with the National Energy Technology Laboratory showed that naturally occurring signals in underground fluids can serve as effective indicators of flow patterns between existing wellbores. Understanding these patterns can lead to increased efficiency and safety.
From 26 to 27 August, industry executives, policymakers, financiers, researchers, and technologists will gather in Malaysia to explore the full potential of CCUS.

Hull fouling is a huge problem and is estimated to account for 9% of the global fleet’s fuel consumption every year. Initial theoretical, laboratory, and land-based tests supported by independent experts have led to promising results showing that ultrasound can prevent biofouling. -
Technology uptake aimed at optimizing resources, delivering consistency, and augmenting what humans can do.
