Tenaris plans to invest $190 million for the construction of a wind farm located in Adolfo Gonzales Chaves, in the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Instead of supporting increased natural gas production and the construction of natural gas pipelines, processing stations, power plants and other infrastructure, some senators’ proposed solution is to go after U.S. LNG exports.

Several oil and gas field developments awaiting regulatory approval have already been factored into the U.K.’s long-term plans for carbon neutrality.

API, Delegation of the European Union to the United States and LNG Allies hosted a roundtable with European Commissioner for Energy Kadri Simson to discuss the role of LNG in bolstering the EU’s long-term energy security.

A new analysis from McKinsey & Co. estimates that the investment, in new infrastructure and systems, needed to meet international climate goals could be $9.2 trillion a year annually through 2050.

Increased industry demand for lower emissions, improved operational efficiency and reliability, and competitive capital cost structure, all call for innovative thinking in hydraulic equipment design and engineering. Direct-drive turbine technology has been proven to take up the challenges.

Upcoming EPA methane regulations are far-reaching and will have a major impact on upstream and midstream operations. Analysis reveals that new technologies may help to reduce operators’ regulatory burden while detecting more emissions than periodic hand-held optical gas inspections.

The European Commission has been told by a key expert group that planned adjustments to its green rulebook risk raising greenhouse gas emissions and undermining the bloc’s reputation as a bastion for environmentally friendly finance.

The era of ever-cheaper clean power is over, giving a fresh jolt of uncertainty to global energy markets battered by one supply crisis after another.

The United Arab Emirates’ biggest renewable-energy company will make acquisitions and sell bonds as part of a plan to more than double its operations this decade and help the country achieve a net-zero target.

The Netherlands is throwing a hydrogen life preserver to pipelines that are on the brink of becoming stranded assets. The nation will end most natural-gas production this year, forcing NV Nederlandse Gasunie to find alternative uses for its 15,000 kilometers of pipes.

In this webcast learn how working with Aggreko, we can clean up to 99% of all controlled emissions. Emissions down to 0.5 parts per million (0.01 g/bhp-hr*). Climate change is the single biggest challenge we face as a global community, and at Aggreko we are working hard to reshape our business for a low carbon future. As the world grows more concerned with how its energy is produced, we are leading our customers to adopt better energy solutions, incorporating sustainable products and technologies to meet their energy needs. Aggreko is investing in efficiency projects, applying low carbon design principles, and evaluating emissions reduction technologies to achieve this goal.

DNV to evaluate 72 km DN600 high-pressure natural gas pipeline for transport of hydrogen and hydrogen blends.

Scotland awarded rights for a massive offshore wind development more than twice the size of the UK’s current capacity, in a move that surprised the market for its scale and was welcomed by environmentalists.

BP and the Ministry of Energy and Minerals in Oman signed a Strategic Framework Agreement and a Renewables Data Collection Agreement which will support the potential development of a multiple gigawatt, world-class renewable energy and green hydrogen development in Oman by 2030.

Canada is preparing to roll out a tax credit for investments in carbon capture, a key step to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions from its oil sands, and will soon outline its 2030 goals for pollution cuts.

Operations can be decarbonized either by reducing energy consumption or by reducing emissions. Cementing technologies that can either improve operational efficiency, have less CO2e embedded during their manufacturing process compared with traditional materials, prevent uncontrolled leak in the environment, or any combination of the above, address sustainability challenges around well construction activities and our industry in general. CemFIT Heal is a flexible self-healing cement system. It provides competent annular seal, delivers superior mechanical properties and auto-repairs as and when required during the life of the well. This assures long term-well integrity and reduces direct and indirect CO2 emissions. EverCRETE is a CO2 resistant cement system which not only maintains integrity under exposure to the most critical CO2 conditions but also has self-healing ability to repair cracks and micro annuli on contact with CO2. This enables efficient underground storage to keep greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere. Our range of lost circulation solutions work in extreme conditions to reduce flat drilling times and improve isolation during cementing hence optimizing energy and chemical consumption. Cementing technologies that drive high performance, sustainably are needed to accelerate the path to net zero.

The U.S. is backing natural gas and low-carbon power sources as it seeks to improve the eastern Mediterranean’s energy ties to Europe and promote stability in the region.

Less than half of oil and natural gas drillers in the U.S. Great Plains and Rocky Mountains plan to curb emissions of carbon dioxide and methane this year, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.

Neptune Energy announced the development of new “digital twins” of two platforms in the Dutch North Sea, which will accelerate work schedules, and reduce costs and environmental impacts by enabling engineers to work onshore.
