The project will implement two distinct carbon technologies aimed at capturing and storing carbon dioxide. Svante’s CEO Claude Letourneau describes his company’s solid-sorbent technology used in collaboration with Climeworks, one of the awarded companies.

The challenges that geothermal energy faces to become a leading player in the net-zero world are well within the areas of expertise of the SPE community, ranging from rapid technology implementation and learning-by-doing to assure competitiveness to establishing suitable funding mechanisms to secure access to capital.

The use of oil-based muds has precluded countless drill cuttings from being used to predict reservoir fluids despite once being part of the reservoir. A 6-decade-old technology may be on the cusp of changing that.

Pink hydrogen, produced through water electrolysis powered by nuclear energy, recently drew attention which underscored the complexity of decision-making in advancing such projects.

Jim Gable, president of Chevron Technology Ventures, shares how CTV works with startups and how their technologies go big.

The developer of the recently emerged anchorbit technology is preparing to drill its first geothermal well next year in Germany.

Derived from the principles of radial jet drilling, a new technology called micro-turbine drilling is developed to allow for drilling of micro-sidetracks from cased boreholes in very hard reservoir rock.

A total of 15 companies, including five small businesses, were recognized this year for their demonstrated advancements in the industry.

More than two dozen artificial intelligence systems are being celebrated for delivering massive value to the national oil company.

Artificial intelligence is increasingly being used to assist in the development of materials, including metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), to advance carbon capture technologies. Researchers assembled more than 120,000 new MOF candidates within 30 minutes.
