Equinor generated its first revenue from the Adura joint venture with Shell, formed in late 2025, highlighting strong early cash flow from key UK fields including Mariner and Buzzard.
Acting director of the new center Ale Hakala outlines the research priorities guiding the newly established center’s focus on production enhancement technologies.
AI‑driven data center growth is straining US power grids and accelerating interest in enhanced geothermal systems as a scalable, low‑carbon solution.

This paper aims to investigate the use of an optimization workflow to maximize both hydrogen storage and the net present value to obtain an optimal reservoir development strategy. -
This paper describes how ramp-up operations and commercialization of an underground storage asset were combined, rapidly providing a wide range of commercial services to the Italian gas system while long-term UGS performance increased continuously.
-
The authors introduce a novel framework combining dynamic mode decomposition, a data-driven model-reduction technique, with direct data assimilation to streamline the calibration of carbon-dioxide plume evolution models.
-
Today, the dependence on primary monitors is higher than ever, so much so that orchestrated efforts are underway to make these nearly foolproof. Often, direct measurements are supplemented with model predictions. Also notably visible are the efforts to integrate multiple perspectives of sustained production.
-
This paper outlines a technique to evaluate formation temperature shifts when closely spaced wells are produced concurrently and applies the technique to validate the design basis for new development.
-
This article kicks off a Q&A series from the SPE Research and Development Technical Section, focusing on emerging energy technologies. In this piece, Amy Bason of the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative highlights decarbonization efforts in global transportation.
-
Geothermal systems, which rely on extracting heat from deep within the Earth, face many of the same technical challenges that oil and gas operators have tackled for decades. Geothermal development can be advanced efficiently and economically by applying proven oil and gas technologies.

Updates about global exploration and production activities and developments.
-
This study highlights how the recovery and reuse of existing hydrocarbon infrastructure can contribute to the diffusion of district-heating projects that implement the principles of the circular economy.
-
Two new studies from completions experts suggest the global upstream industry has a major opportunity in medium-quality reservoirs.
