The report says the capacity of renewables in the region is set to grow tenfold by 2040 as electricity demand and new sectors drive rapid solar and wind expansion.
This study identifies critical knowledge gaps in wellbore integrity and underscores areas that require further investigation, providing insights into how wellbores must evolve to meet the technical demands of the energy transition.
This study illustrates the new capabilities, tailored for carbon-dioxide storage applications, of a modeling framework that provides a quantitative, risk-based assessment of the long-term integrity of legacy plugged and abandoned wells.

An economic analysis of a wellbore methodology in natural gas fields that uses gasification of methane within the wellbore (not within the reservoir) for hydrogen production while incorporating simultaneous sequestration of carbon. This new methodology offers significant energy and cost savings in addition to zero carbon being produced to the surface.

Hunt Energy Network invested $10 million into Quidnet to help scale up the company’s concept for geopressured energy storage to the tune of 300 MW.
-
Years in the making, the program sponsored by the US Department of Energy is celebrating its latest geothermal energy breakthrough in southwestern Utah.
-
The companies are combining their technologies in an effort to help upstream oil and gas operators monitor, report, and reduce emissions.
-
This paper presents efforts and details of a pilot trial that was planned and executed to demonstrate the concept of repurposing existing wells into electricity generators instead of abandoning them.
-
Heightened focus on methane emissions management spurs a new conceptual framework to aid in determining the duration of detected methane emissions, data that may be useful to stakeholders responsible for measurement-informed emission protocols.
