Tulsa Innovation Labs' Rose Rock Bridge program awarded $400,000 to four energy technology startups, bringing AI-driven innovation, industry partnerships, and the potential for more than 135 new Oklahoma jobs to Tulsa.
New geothermal technical content and programming will highlight knowledge transfer among oil and gas and geothermal professionals.
This case study from Malaysia’s Petronas outlines a comprehensive review of perforation-charge testing across various tubular and reservoir conditions to help improve production from complex downhole scenarios.

A team of engineers did something no one had done before: a full-scale fracturing test on the surface. The results surprised the fracturing experts involved.
-
The message from a single chart’s data from the first full-scale hydraulic fracturing surface test is simple: Far less proppant flows out of the first clusters passed in a stage than the last ones.
-
A system that could help turn stranded-gas fields into producing projects has moved closer to reality, aided by the growing focus on reductions in carbon emissions.
-
Many OFS companies have pulled away from the unconventional resources and redirected their efforts into alternate energy and clean technology. There is a limited bucket of money available for these companies to invest in new technology, and with every dollar diverted to ESG, those dollars are taken away from traditional technologies.

Swiss robotics company ANYbotics introduced ANYmal X, the first explosion-proof legged robot, at the Offshore Technology Conference Asia.
-
The center will develop innovations for renewable-energy technology and the low-carbon future and will bring together and support research of faculty in the energy, materials science, data science, and artificial-intelligence fields.

Oil producers encountering pockets of methane typically use flare stacks to burn off the vented gas. However, winds blowing across conventional open flame burners often result in 40% or more of the methane escaping into the air.
-
Gazprom Neft and a cloud computing joint venture involving Abu Dhabi National Oil Company have signed an agreement to commercialize jointly developed digital solutions in Russia and the Middle East.

Applications include identifying new green catalysts to enable the conversion of waste products to useful matter, green hydrogen generation, CO2 utilization, and the development of fuel cells. Novel catalysts also could be used to replace expensive and rare materials such as iridium, the metal used to generate green hydrogen and CO2 reduction products.
