The Pawnee Carbon Sequestration Project, which would use a repurposed well, is planned to capture and store up to 400,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide, with first injection targeted for early 2027.
DNV notes that energy and industrial process-related carbon emissions will have dropped by 2050 by only 44% from today’s level, not even halfway to the net-zero pledge envisioned by the Paris climate agreement.
SPE's new Asset Integrity Technical Section brings together industry experts to advance best practices in reliability engineering, asset integrity, risk reduction, and infrastructure performance. The global community will focus on the safe, reliable, and sustainable operation of energy assets across both traditional and emerging energy sectors.

Real-time wellhead monitoring aims to help Romania meet new EU methane emission regulations. -
The supermajor’s Energy Outlook 2025 suggests geopolitical fragmentation could tilt the balance of the energy trilemma toward energy security and away from sustainability.

Iraq’s Gas Growth Integrated Project aims to increase electricity generation by capturing flare gas collected from three southern oil fields. A desalination project will use treated seawater to maintain well pressures.
-
The agency’s administrator said the program “does nothing to improve air quality.”
-
The project is expected to recover up to 300 MMscf/D of flared gas. Plans call for the recovered gas to be converted into treated dry gas, liquefied petroleum gas, and condensate for domestic use and export.
