This work describes a study in which distributed data parallel training, paired with a node-local caching pipeline, enabled efficient multigraphics-processing-unit scaling for a CO₂-storage graph-neural-network surrogate while maintaining generalization.
This work uses a novel pseudosteady-state-based simulation to reduce training-data-generation cost while maintaining high-performance predictions of data-driven proxy models for carbon-sequestration projects.
This paper reviews a proof-of-concept project in which surplus casing pipes were used in the fabrication of purposefully designed artificial reef structures for the enhancement of biodiversity and commercial fisheries.

The California Resources Corporation achieved the state’s first carbon dioxide injection into two depleted reservoirs with the potential to store 38 million tonnes. -
The new technology, recently highlighted at OTC, has received a statement of maturity from ABS.
-
Research by Enervus sees early 2026 permitting activity for the carbon capture and storage wells pointing to a growing approval queue, even while the rate of applications eases.
-
The new guidelines were released prior to reports that enhanced geothermal developer Fervo Energy experienced a blowout in Utah with no reported injuries.
-
This paper presents a case study of oriented tubing-conveyed perforation followed by an acidizing operation to overcome technical challenges posed by a depleted reservoir targeted for a carbon capture, utilization, and storage project.
-
This paper reviews existing literature, the operator’s records, service-company data, and simulation studies to assess the risk of using seawater in carbonate acidizing.
-
This guest editorial from the Center for Injection and Seismicity Research (CISR) at The University of Texas at Austin details the emerging risks posed by injection in Texas and what steps might be taken to mitigate them.
-
New technical papers suggest advanced robotic systems may not be far away from broad adoption for a large share of offshore inspection and intervention.
-
This paper explores the transformative effect of unmanned aerial systems on operational efficiency, safety, and emergency response within the Khurais oil fields in Saudi Arabia. By integrating sophisticated drone technology, improvements have been achieved in routine inspections, leak detection, and emergency scenarios.
