United States M&A activity for upstream oil and gas deals set records in 2011 for both deal values and deal counts, according to PLS, Inc., a provider of information, marketing and advisory services for the oil and gas industry. We expect continued strong activity in oil and liquids-rich resource plays in 2012.
Alta Resources, LLC and Blackstone Capital Partners, an affiliate of The Blackstone Group have formed Alta Energy Partners which will invest up to $1 billion to acquire and develop unconventional oil and gas assets in North America. Founded in 1999 by Joseph G.
The agreement, which is subject to XTO stockholder approval and regulatory clearance, will enhance ExxonMobil’s position in the development of unconventional natural gas and oil resources. XTO’s resource base is the equivalent of 45 trillion cubic feet of gas and includes shale gas, tight gas, coal bed methane and shale oil.
The Department of the Interior awarded an initial $560 million from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to 24 states to begin work to plug, cap and reclaim orphaned oil and gas wells. Arkansas and Mississippi will receive $5 million each to support methane measurement and begin plugging wells. California. 1,000-1,200.
The Office of Fossil Energy’s National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) has selected nine new projects targeting environmental tools and technology for shale gas and coalbed methane (CBM) production. University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, Ark. The total proposed value for all selected projects is $10.2 million (DOE share: $6.9
will construct the Diamond Pipeline, a 440-mile (708 km), 20-inch crude oil pipeline that will provide capacity of up to 200,000 barrels per day of domestic sweet crude from the Plains Cushing, Okla. The refinery currently primarily processes light and sweet crude oil received through the Capline pipeline.
When it takes up to four million pounds of sand to frack a single well, it’s no wonder that demand is outpacing supply and frack sand producers are becoming the biggest behind-the-scenes beneficiaries of the American oil and gas boom. Pushing demand up is the trend for wider, shorter fracs , which require twice as much sand.
Shell Oil Company has signed an agreement with Ryder System for 15 liquefied natural gas (LNG) heavy-duty vehicles supporting oil and gas logistics operations in Lafayette, La. facility, which is being engineered to meet the unique compliance requirements for natural gas. and Houston, Texas. service locations.
Schematic diagram of a shale gas well following hydraulic fracture treatment, with the relative depths of local water wells shown for scale. Hydraulic fracturing (“fracking”) extracts natural gas by injecting a mixture of water, sand, and chemicals in short bursts at high pressure into deep underground wells.
The Houston Advanced Research Center ( HARC ) and the Harold Vance Department of Petroleum Engineering at Texas A&M University are establishing a collaborative research program to promote advanced technology for low-impact oil and gas drilling. University of Arkansas. University of Colorado. Utah State University.
Researchers at the US Geological Survey (USGS) say they have located high concentrations of lithium brine in the Smackover Formation in southern Arkansas. million metric tons) of lithium in Smackover Formation brine in southern Arkansas. to 19 million tons (4.63
American Electric Power has signed on as a corporate sponsor of The Pickens Plan, proposed by oil and gas industry veteran T. We can’t significantly develop renewable energy resources, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and introduce competition for liquid transportation fuels without a well-designed, reliable national transmission grid.
Published in the journal Science Advances , the research said the lithium found in southern Arkansas could make up to 36% to 136% of the current US lithium reserve estimate – of course, that’s a sweeping number, but we get the gist. The post Arkansas may be sitting on 19 million tons of lithium appeared first on Bauaelectric EV News.
Image: Ford EV battery maker SK On has signed a non-binding agreement to buy lithium from ExxonMobil’s first planned extraction project in Arkansas. The Arkansas project will extract lithium from underground saltwater deposits and convert it into battery-grade material onsite. Get started here.
Muskogee also has a skilled workforce trained in oil and gas engineering. It will use Port Muskogee on the McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System to ship lithium brine water to the refinery, where it will derive the lithium, and then use the same inland waterway system to ship battery-grade lithium out.
He attended the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville for both his undergraduate and graduate degrees. Francis’s other past volunteer roles include serving as chair of the IEEE Ozark Section , which covers Northwest Arkansas, and also as a member of the IEEE-USA Entrepreneurship Policy Innovation Committee.

I would add value to the EVA by bringing the same momentum I've brought the state of Arkansas. Assisted the state of Arkansas in the roll out of the FMAC, AEVIDP, & founded AEVO. Jeff’s Candidate Statement: I am an active board member for the ‘EVA - Arkansas Chapter’ as well as founder of Arkansas Electric Vehicle Owners.
An additional 4 billion gallons of advanced biofuels (defined by the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by at least 50%) by 2022 is also mandated. Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas. Woody biomass, oil seed, grasses, cereal crop residue.
battery production Lithium mining was extensive in North Carolina until the 1980s A lithium deposit located in southwestern Arkansas could hold enough of the metal to satisfy global EV battery demand nine times over, according to a U.S. The post Arkansas might be sitting on 19 million tons of lithium appeared first on Bauaelectric EV News.
REGULATORY RISKS In Oklahoma, which has several brine deposits, the Oklahoma Corporation Commission – which oversees oil and gas development – said it has no jurisdiction over lithium production and royalties, and referred comment to the state’s Department of Mines, which said it also does not oversee lithium.
