Oil and Gas World’s Post

Our organization has a lofty goal: to build on the Permian Basin’s status at the center of the global energy economy by catalyzing the development of new energy technologies and, at the same time, creating value for energy communities. But in a vast region how do we begin to understand what communities need? In our new report, Community Archetypes in the Permian Basin and their Relationship to Energy Resources, Elizabeth Ross, M.S., Gregory Pogue, Jill Engel-Cox and Thushara Gunda explore the strengths and needs of Permian communities in relation to the energy industry. This analysis will provide the basis for assessing, designing and implementing PEDL’s future energy technology research, educational and outreach programs. https://lnkd.in/gJQ3hbDQ

"Our expertise and local subsurface gives the Houston region a huge advantage during the energy transition." Hear from Dr. Susan Hovorka, renowned geologist, on why she believes in CCS technology and supports the Houston CCS Alliance. https://lnkd.in/eyCeRd78

Any discussion of resource development must include renewable energy revenue and carbon sequestration. At present, many utilities literally confiscate valuable renewable attributes (such as carbon offsets and renewable electricity credits) from First Nations with projects on First Nations lands. Time for re-negotiations to commence. Yes it is what we do and have identified as a need. Let’s not limit resource revenue sharing to only the oil & gas sector. #firstnations #resourcerevenues #renewables #ppa #renewableattributes #rec

Surge Energy America's leadership shared their growth strategy in the session "Targeting Growth in the Northern Midland Basin." Travis Guidry, VP of Corporate Development, emphasized Surge's M&A approach: "Anything we can acquire and hook up to our infrastructure, that's number one for us."

Great conversation about the need to move natural gas pipeline infrastructure higher up on the national priority list. Worth a half hour of your time to watch. Thanks to both Amy Andryszak and Pinar Cebi Wilber for sharing your discussion. #NatGas #Pipelines … Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, we’re looking at you for help.

Today’s article introduces Ruth Thomas, Subsurface Manager at Well-Safe Solutions, who transitioned from oil exploration to well decommissioning. She emphasizes the crucial role of geoscience in optimizing well abandonment, reducing costs, and supporting sustainable energy practices. Read more: https://lnkd.in/e4EGmbey

Thank you Paul Bowers and the AIRPORT IMPROVEMENT Magazine team for highlighting our geothermal wellfield project. The overall project totaling $120 million features 648 wells that are 500 feet deep. We are able to significantly reduce our greenhouse-gas (carbon) emissions, lower utility costs, and still achieve operational efficiency through lower maintenance costs.

📢Calling all #Caerphilly based businesses 📢 The Crown Estate application window is open for an initial £10 million first round of funding that will be specifically aimed at UK projects that could support floating offshore wind in the Celtic Sea. The application process will close on 30 July 2024. Successful projects will be announced from October 2024 following assessment of applications, negotiation of funding and commitment agreements and necessary approvals. The accelerator will provide matched funding of up to £1m per project to UK supply chain projects to help them undertake the early-stage development works necessary to get them “investment-ready”. A further £40 million has been earmarked that could potentially be deployed to support UK projects that meet opportunities identified by the Industrial Growth Plan, which sets out how to triple offshore wind manufacturing capacity over the next 10 years.
