Accurate assessment of carbon intensity (CI) is critcial in the liquified natural gas sector. Wrishi Sutradhar, SVP of Growth – Sustainability & Decarbonization Advisory, will break down why it matters at Gastech. Explore our role at Gastech | https://ow.ly/iEGn50Thwra Worley #Gastech #LNG

I was honored to be part of a major National Petroleum Council report, “Harnessing Hydrogen“, which was delivered to Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm earlier this week. This report, which is underpinned by deep subject matter expertise and MIT’s modeling capabilities, provides the most comprehensive and clear-eyed analysis of how low carbon intensity hydrogen (LCI H2) could be scaled up in the United States. For the deep expert, I’d recommend you read through the >1,000 pg report (😊) or at a minimum the Executive Summary. However, if you’re not up for either, let me break it down to a few key points: - Both natural gas-based+CCS and renewable-based LCI H2 can co-exist, although natural gas-based+CCS LCI H2 will dominate early due to scale and speed - The ‘hard to decarbonize‘ Industrial sector (e.g. refining, chemicals, steel) will lead the way in use of LCI H2 and serve as an anchor for heavy duty Transportation and Power sectors - Due to the varying supply of natural gas and renewables, existing infrastructure, and market demand, certain regions in the U.S. will grow LCI H2 faster than others - Producing, delivering, and use of LCI H2 will remain expensive for decades and transparent, market-driven, tech-neutral policies will be needed to close those cost gaps - It is critically important to engage local communities who are key participants in this energy transition The NPC “Harnessing Hydrogen“, report represented >200 participants from 100 organizations who came together to provide 19 key findings supporting 23 key recommendations. Special thanks to the Coordinating Sub Committee, and in particular the chapter leads and their teams who worked tirelessly for nearly 2 years to bring this important report together: Austin Knight, Jennifer Wilcox, Darin Rice, Karel Schnebele, Kiran Mishra-Jha, Mark Shuster, Bob Brinkman, Susan Cathey, Vijai Atavane, Melany Vargas, Poh Boon Ung, Matt Fry, David Monsma, Cristina Cordeddu, Tony Leo, John Gunn, Andrea Lubawy, Steve Kellogg, Aaron Eberle, Bryan Chapman, Matt Young, Thomas Wojahn, James R.

Hydrogen is set to be a cornerstone of the energy transition, with applications spanning industry, transportation, and energy storage. While green hydrogen—produced with renewable energy—has garnered most of the attention, blue hydrogen offers an immediate, scalable solution by leveraging carbon capture and storage (CCUS) and existing infrastructure to meet rising demand efficiently. Projects like Shell’s Quest facility in Canada and ExxonMobil’s Baytown initiative highlight blue hydrogen’s ability to reduce emissions today while complementing the longer-term growth of green hydrogen. By repurposing established assets, blue hydrogen accelerates decarbonization at lower costs and shorter timelines. Together, blue and green hydrogen will underpin a resilient, low-carbon energy future. Conventional energy players are uniquely positioned to lead this transformation, driving innovation and scaling hydrogen solutions for global impact. #Hydrogen #BlueHydrogen #GreenHydrogen #EnergyTransition #CCUS #FutureOfEnergy #Decarbonization

𝗘𝗻𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗢𝗶𝗹 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗮𝗽𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗖𝗢𝟮: 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝗖𝗦-𝗘𝗢𝗥 The future of CCS-EOR is complex. Wood Mackenzie has revealed that CCS-EOR could offer a pragmatic solution for the energy transition that could yield a lower carbon footprint than traditional oil and gas operations. CCS-EOR was a focus of energy and decarbonisation discussions a decade ago, however, in recent years momentum around the practice has declined. The loss of popularity around the practice may be attributed to the argument that CCS-EOR empowers incremental global hydrocarbon production and keeps the world reliant on fossil fuels. https://lnkd.in/gpf4ac6N #oilgas #oilandgas #energy #technology #business #future #carbon #eor #strategy #reservoirengineering

In 2021, global CO2 emissions from natural gas power plants reached approximately 7.5 billion tonnes, representing 20% of total energy-related CO2 emissions. Amine-based post-combustion carbon capture and green hydrogen blending are viewed as the two most prominent decarbonization pathways for natural gas-based power generation. However, IEA estimates that amine-based carbon capture incurs a capture cost between $50 to $100/tCO2 avoided, while 50% green hydrogen blending at a hydrogen supply cost of $4/kg incurs a carbon abatement cost of $470/tCO2 avoided. Carbonate fuel cell (CFC) is a new cost-effective solution that could be retrofitted to a combined cycle power plant. The resulting power cycle has the potential to keep the overall cycle electrical efficiency approximately unchanged with respect to the original combined cycle, while separating up to 90% of the CO2 otherwise vented to the atmosphere. The technology is currently at the bench-scale pilot and FuelCell Energy and ExxonMobil are working to develop a larger industrial pilot at Exxon's Esso refinery complex in Rotterdam.
