The Japanese company ratcheted up the competitive nature of contracting for a floating production, storage, and offloading vessel and an onshore liquefied natural gas plant for the Abadi project by announcing dual front-end engineering design (FEED) contracts.
Work by researchers at the University of Saskatchewan aims to advance the understanding of clathrate hydrates, crystal cages of ice that can trap gas and liquids.
Electricity produced onshore powers oil production at Johan Sverdrup holding CO₂ emissions at only 5% of the global average.

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.
