Using emergency procedures, the permitting timeline is expected to be significantly reduced from years to weeks, in some cases.
The latest deepwater exploration well offshore Namibia has found 38 m of net pay and flowed more than 11,000 BOPD of 37 °API oil during testing.
The UK North Sea Transition Authority has awarded the required permits for the East Irish Sea project, and the project has reached financial close. The carbon capture and storage storage project is expected to receive its first carbon dioxide in 2028.

This paper discusses how a traditional stochastic approach in project economics used for screening and ranking can sometimes limit management visibility of all possible outcomes in a project.

It seems that it has been a very productive period for production and facilities. I reviewed a significant number of abstracts on such an interesting variety of topics—new technology developments down- and midstream, improvements in corrosion detection and prediction, new systems for emulsion monitoring, and even downhole drones.

A surge in permit applications for long-term carbon storage sites reflects where industrially produced carbon dioxide can be harvested, and where the necessary pipelines are.

Cemvita and ChampionX are launching a pilot project next year to turn an old oil field into one that may yield tons of hydrogen each day.

The contracts awarded by ExxonMobil and Equinor are for work offshore Guyana and Brazil.

The captured carbon dioxide will be permanently sequestered in the Cameron Parish CO2 Hub to be located offshore Louisiana.
