Production
Acting director of the new center Ale Hakala outlines the research priorities guiding the newly established center’s focus on production enhancement technologies.
Opening day remarks from President Mohamed Irfaan Ali framed fossil fuels and renewables as parallel systems amid rising demand and structural supply pressures.
The UAE will prioritize national interests and production flexibility, setting up implications for OPEC’s market power, oil, prices, and global supply dynamics.

The outcome of the authors’ experiments revealed that the tertiary injection of nanoparticles results in additional oil recovery beyond the limit of low-salinity water. -
In a natural pivot from oil and gas E&P, former oilfield executives are taking up the hunt for helium. Helium is used in a wide variety of products, such as rocket ships and computer chips, and, while there is still plenty left to find on Earth, finding quality commercial quantities can be a difficult task and reserves are running low.

Until you hear that commercial fusion reactors are online or that low-cost, grid-scale electricity storage made from commonplace materials can handle a 10-day cold snap or heat wave, there is no need to hang up your pipe wrenches. Fossil fuels will remain the most energy-dense, cost-effective, reliable energy source until an extraordinary breakthrough creates a better…
