Argentina’s President Javier Milei met with TotalEnergies CEO Patrick Pouyanné and Eni CEO Claudio Descalzi in Paris to discuss Argentina’s energy sector, including projects linked to the Vaca Muerta shale formation and the development of the Argentina LNG export project.
The Absheron gas field expansion will supply additional natural gas to Azerbaijan’s domestic market and support its export commitments to Turkey, allowing Baku to stay focused on meeting its gas export obligations to Europe.
A credible custody-transfer record depends on far more than the accuracy of a single meter. It is the product of an integrated measurement chain. While meter performance supports measurement-system integrity, commercial confidence also depends on traceability, governance, and authorization.

The BC-10 asset, located in deep water offshore Brazil, produces heavy oil in the range of 16 to 24 °API. In this article, two examples of production optimization for this field will be provided (further examples are available in the complete paper). -
This paper describes the CLOV deepwater megaproject in Block 17 offshore Angola, which cost USD 8.4 billion to first oil.

As operators look to reduce the time and cost for projects, adopting a modular approach to facility design. While this approach may provide some benefits, it may not be the most efficient path.

Many of the platforms in the North Sea are late in life, operating long past their initial design expectations due to costly life-extension work. Decommissioning has moved slowly, but the low price environment is likely to accelerate the trend.
