Energy Transition

The gas producer must participate in further mediation with the unions before the date of the hearing, Fair Work Commission President Adam Hatcher said in a preliminary hearing Tuesday.

On Friday, an auction for contracts to build new wind farms received zero bids from developers. It’s the first time that’s happened since the current system was introduced almost a decade ago, and it raises major questions about the UK’s environmental targets.

The lack of power infrastructure, demand for low-carbon energy, and increasing government investments in the energy industry are set to drive the floating power plant market growth in the evaluation period.

The producer has asked the Fair Work Commission to make intractable bargaining declarations for the Gorgon and Wheatstone facilities, adding to a similar request already lodged in relation to the Wheatstone platform, a Chevron spokesman said.

Eliminating the need to transport drilling waste long distances for treatment, the RotoMill 2.0 processes drilling waste at the wellsite. The solution recovers oil, water and solids from drill cuttings, allowing the reuse and recycling of all materials from the drilling waste.

Known as the Energy Capital of the World, Houston is home to companies right across the energy value chain, and some of the world’s largest LNG export facilities, as well as being a hub for innovation and technology.

The start of the industrial action marks the culmination of weeks-long discussions that have kept markets on edge. Unions first threatened to pursue strikes at the Chevron sites and Woodside Energy Group Ltd.’s facilities in early August.

During its 50th anniversary run, Offshore Europe’s participants have shown a remarkable, collective optimism about the future of offshore energy. We talked with Westwood Global Energy Group’s Research Director for Northwest Europe, Yvonne Telford, in the following special interview.

Chevron’s Gorgon and Wheatstone plants together supplied about 7% of the world’s LNG last year, and unions have planned to start with partial strikes if no resolution is reached.

At the third day of Gastech 2023, senior ministers, business leaders, and global climate specialists reached consensus on the steps required to develop new solutions to reduce carbon emissions and accelerate climate technologies.

BluenzymeTM is a plug-and-play solution based on the use of enzymes, which ensures a carbon capture process with reduced environmental impact. The first industrialized product is BluenzymeTM 200, with a nominal capture capacity of 200 tonnes of CO2 per day

ADNOC Gas continues to leverage opportunities arising from ADNOC’s integrated gas masterplan, which links every part of the gas value chain in the UAE, ensuring a sustainable and economic supply of natural gas to meet local and international demand.

The new deadline for industrial action at the Gorgon and Wheatstone plants is 6 a.m. local time Friday, a Chevron Australia spokesperson said in an emailed statement. The unions previously threatened to start partial strikes on Sep. 7 and then escalate to full stoppages that would begin Sep. 14 and last two weeks.

Success in oil and gas has historically relied on maximizing production at the lowest cost per barrel. Now the imperative to decarbonize introduces a new critical performance metric—achieving ROI at the lowest carbon emissions per barrel. With increased pressure on majors, NOCs and independents alike, producing oil and gas with lowest possible greenhouse gas (GHG) footprint is quickly becoming a priority for both new and existing assets. But where to get started? In this webcast, SLB experts will dive into some root causes of GHG emissions in production operations.

The agreement secures a delivery schedule for the eight LM6000PF+ gas turbines, main refrigerant compressors, and control units required for Phase 1, supporting Driftwood’s ability to achieve initial liquefied natural gas (LNG) production in 2027.

Gas demand is expected to continue to grow for quite some time in order to enhance energy security, curb consumption of dirtier coal and compliment intermittent renewable sources, Steve Hill, Executive Vice President of Shell Energy, said at the same conference.

SLB will combine its research and development (R&D) and global technology industrialization capabilities with TDA’s R&D expertise to accelerate commercial development of TDA’s sorbent technologies.

The 50th anniversary edition of SPE Offshore Europe (OE) got underway Tuesday morning with a solid, well-received Opening Address by British Minister of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, Graham Stuart, MP.

Using best-in-class technology, the project will triple ADNOC’s carbon capture capacity to 2.3 MMtpa, equivalent to removing over 500,000 gasoline-powered cars from the road per year.

Once the legislation comes into effect, it will mean that the NSTA will become the licensing/consenting authority for offshore hydrogen pipelines, bringing these under similar arrangements currently used for oil and gas pipelines.
