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.

The authors write that the road to decarbonization will involve several technologies working in concert, not the use of only one at the expense of others.
-
The author shows that renewable energies are best used in replacing fossil fuels in the power sector, where it has the most effect in reducing CO2 emissions.
-
The oilfield service giant said its plans to decarbonize are inclusive of Scope 3 emissions, or the emissions generated when customers use its technologies.
