HSE & Sustainability
As drilling operations become increasingly digital, computer vision is emerging as a continuous safety layer that complements, not replaces, established safety practices. The challenge is no longer whether artificial intelligence can detect hazards, but how operators should deploy, integrate, and govern these systems to improve safety without adding operational comple…
New geothermal technical content and programming will highlight knowledge transfer among oil and gas and geothermal professionals.
The challenge is to ensure that changes to major accident hazards are properly managed, whether the changes occur by adapting conventional industry operations to lower carbon or by introducing innovative technologies.

The road to a low-carbon world is paved with more than just shiny new facilities and the promise to deliver impressive CO₂ reductions from the atmosphere. Without the software to site, monitor, and maintain those facilities, the drive for net zero would be stuck in neutral.

This paper aims to close some of the many knowledge gaps that exist in the field of drilling CO₂ storage wells, a task that is expected to involve handling an influx of CO₂ into the drilling fluid.

The chair of the Texas Railroad Commission is defending her seat this November at a time when the state’s oil and gas industry is booming but the agency that regulates it is facing criticism over safety concerns.
-
But no one appears really happy with the cumulative impact rules lauded by the Colorado Energy and Carbon Management Commission as “a big step forward.”
-
Consulting and engineering firm Wood is leading a joint industry partnership to create industry guidelines for carbon dioxide specifications to accelerate sustainable carbon capture, use, and storage projects.
-
The financial losses come from reduced productivity, high employee turnover, or the loss of skilled labor as a direct result of unmanaged mental health challenges.
-
The presence of marine mammals during offshore infrastructure work is a major environmental concern. To safeguard species and their natural habitats, more and more local legislation imposes a cap on sound levels from offshore activities.
