Energy Transition

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.
