ExxonMobil and its Area 4 partners have awarded $1.1 billion in pre-investment contracts for long-lead upstream equipment supporting Mozambique's Rovuma LNG project. The awards, led by OneSubsea, mark a key step toward FID as development advances on ExxonMobil's largest global investment.
SPE Offshore Europe 2027 has unveiled its conference theme, “(Em)Powering Europe: Securing Our Energy Future,” and opened the call for technical paper proposals for the Aberdeen event.
Flow measurement touches almost every phase of oil and gas operations. Yet the industry still struggles to distinguish between what is directly measured, what is inferred, and what is estimated through models, correlations, or assumptions. That distinction matters. A measurement does not need to be perfect to be useful, but it must be fit for purpose.

The authors of this paper find that elongation, reduction in area, and time to failure of Fe17Cr5.5Ni-based alloys were greater than those of Fe13Cr5Ni-based alloys in high-pressure/high-temperature carbon dioxide environments, indicative of better stress corrosion cracking resistance. -
After Equinor laid out its strategy to maximize oil and gas profits as it transitions to business that minimizes carbon emissions, stock analysts asked if the less-profitable units can sustain the dividend.

Tropical storms severely affect oil and gas production in the Gulf of Mexico, especially during the storm season from June to December. Offshore well managers often need to shut down operations and evacuate the facility because of storm alerts. The purpose of this paper is to determine the effect of storms on production by quantifying metrics such as downtime days and…

Norway appears to be taking a dual approach to energy transition. In its just-released energy white paper, the Norwegian government says it is committed to producing renewable energy and bolstering its power grid but isn’t willing to halt development of its oil and gas resources.

This 17th article in the Savvy Separator Series addresses how process flow conditions can lead to incorrect or misinterpreted level readings. Poor process vessel design is often exacerbated by miscalibrated instrumentation, leading to suboptimal operation and poor efficiency of the separator. In some cases, the location of the instrumentation can also lead to erroneou…
