This paper presents a flexible, highly cost- and energy-efficient method of gas separation and CO2 capture from many different gas mixtures with a large range of CO2 concentrations.
This work introduces a novel predictive methodology combini ang historical metocean data with real-time riser analysis for shallow water dynamically positioned (DP) rig operations, addressing a gap in industry literature. The integrated approach of predictive nonproductive-time (NPT) estimation, real-time monitoring validation, and structured decision protocols for cr…
This study explores the carbon-capture and mineralization potential of ultramafic rock powders when exposed to flue gases generated from combustion of crude oil and mesquite-derived charcoal.

Once labeled “undrillable,” Brazil’s heavy-oil Atlanta field in the Santos Basin faced technical, financial, and logistical challenges. But through a phased approach, clever reuse of assets, and disciplined project execution, Brava Energia transformed a risky deepwater asset into a producing field with 172 million BOE in 2P reserves.

This study leverages oil-fingerprinting technology and geochemical data to evaluate the fluid connectivity between a main field and its stepout wells.
-
This work proposes a method to interpret far-field strain-change and pressure data to quantify fracture connectivity and properties at the cluster level.
