Energy Transition
The global energy transition is accelerating, but geopolitical tensions, infrastructure constraints, and behavioral barriers are increasingly shaping its pace, priorities, and long-term impact.
Methane abatement is emerging as a critical strategy for decarbonizing oil and gas operations, enhancing energy security, and creating commercial value by capturing emissions, meeting growing regulatory requirements, and supplying certified low-emissions natural gas to global markets.
Rita Okoroafor, SPE, reflects on her journey from petroleum engineering to academia, emphasizing how subsurface expertise, curiosity, and collaboration can drive innovation and support the transition to sustainable, low-carbon energy systems.
-
Breakthroughs in energy, similar to those seen in AI, require coordinated progress across multiple fields and the resolution of structural bottlenecks. As a result, a successful energy transition depends on integrated advances in infrastructure, policy, technology, and investment rather than isolated efforts. -
Part two of this three-part series explores the history of 10 years, 2005 to 2014, of the UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties.
-
The energy transition is often portrayed as linear, but recent geopolitical tensions and market uncertainties show that the shift to a low-carbon future will be complex and shaped by multiple, interconnected pressures.
-
Liu shares her career experiences as it spans biomedical engineering, multiphase flow measurement in oil and gas, and emissions quantification.
-
Geoscientists are shifting from primarily discovering and extracting resources to integrating knowledge, guiding sustainable decisions, and using Earth’s history to help balance resource development with long-term planetary health.
-
Mark your calendars for the final SPE Live featuring the 2025 TWA Energy Influencers.
-
Part one of this three-part series explores the history of the first 10 years of the UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties.
-
With more than 75,000 professionals in attendance, the fourth edition of India Energy Week brought together industry leaders, policymakers, and energy stakeholders to discuss not just oil and gas, but the future of energy.
-
Hydrogen is emerging as a key low-carbon energy carrier for the energy transition, with multiple production pathways that differ in cost, emissions, and scalability trade-offs.
-
By integrating AI into every layer of the energy ecosystem, from renewable forecasting to dynamic pricing, the path toward secure, sustainable, and affordable energy becomes not just possible but achievable.
