This paper presents laboratory-testing methods and evaluation criteria designed to improve understanding of both the origin and extent of formation damage associated with CO2 injection.
This work presents an evaluation for carbon capture, utilization, and storage projects in the UAE for two wells in a saline water aquifer with respect to caprock integrity and water sampling.
This work introduces an analytical model for nonisothermal CO2 injection that accounts for both Joule-Thomson cooling and interformation heat exchange.

Pending US Law Offers Big Boost to CO2 Storage Credits in Exchange for New Fees on Methane EmissionsUsing a carrot-and-stick approach, the US federal government is poised to spur the nation's oil and gas industry into doing more to combat emissions. -
Given that hydrogen sulfide is such a risk to workers, care must be taken to protect and prevent exposure, particularly when working with lesser-known methods and in more dangerous settings, such as sour-gas fields and the sweetening process.

The COVID-19 pandemic caused a major disruption to industry training programs and university geoscience courses as travel restrictions and lockdowns created the need for digital alternatives. Although virtual field trips had been gaining traction before the pandemic, the sudden need to replace physical field activities has driven a rising interest to allow geologists …

The assumption of lower emissions from natural gas only holds true when the methane leaks and flaring are addressed. Mitigation of methane emissions offers an opportunity for the oil and gas industry to drastically reduce overall emissions that are typically reported on a CO2-equivalent basis. Some producers opt to showcase their good performance via voluntary certifi…
