This paper presents an approach to the identification, selection, and implementation of initiatives for sustainable water management, withdrawal reduction, and water valorization.
This paper explores the application of a modular, high-temperature gas-cooled nuclear reactor to a Very Large Crude Carrier-class floating production, storage, and offloading vessel.
This paper describes the potential of combined-cycle technology (use of a gas turbine and a steam turbine together to turn fuel into electricity) in offshore carbon-capture applications.

Gas flaring, which accounts for 30% of carbon emissions from fossil-fuel operations, dropped globally to a 10-year low in 2021, but questions remain whether 2022 will see a rebound as the industry reboots in a post-COVID-19 world with oil and gas supplies tightening.

Any effective system of greenhouse-gas accounting needs to measure each company’s supply-chain carbon impacts accurately, providing visibility and incentives for it to make more climate-friendly product-specification and purchasing decisions.

I was arrogant and selfish to dismiss an entire collegial branch of science. After so many years learning and living within the petroleum industry, I decided I should give climatology a fairer hearing.

ExxonMobil has initiated front-end engineering design studies to determine the feasibility of developing a South East Australia carbon capture and storage hub in the Bass Strait, where some of Australia’s oldest offshore oil and gas fields are to be decommissioned.

Efforts to mitigate the potentially harmful effects of hydraulic fracturing have traditionally been divided along two fronts—those that primarily focus on protecting the environment and wildlife and those that focus on protecting humans and domestic animals. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

MIT scientists hope to deploy a fleet of drones to get a better sense of how much carbon the ocean is absorbing and how much more it can take.

A University of Houston research project aims to improve safety, health, and wellbeing of offshore oil and gas workers.
-
The decision comes after an environmental review showed that the floating production, storage, and offloading vessel-based development was unlikely to cause negative environmental effects.
-
Supermajors continue to align their goals with a net-zero future while strides are made across the globe to add CCS, solar, and wind projects to help achieve ambitious green energy goals.
