As part of a strategy to continue providing low-emissions solutions for harsh offshore operating environments, Siemens has opened a fully robotized and digitalized plant in Norway that will develop and manufacture energy storage technologies for both marine and offshore oil and gas applications.
Researchers from the GEOMAR Helmholtz Center for Ocean Research Kiel have found that considerable quantities of the greenhouse gas methane escape uncontrolled into the water from abandoned oil and gas wells in the North Sea. The most important factor was indeed the distance of the wells from the gas pockets. Haeckel, M.
While hydrogen is expected to play a critical role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, at standard conditions, it is a flammable gas with low density and cannot be transported efficiently in a gaseous form. LOHC is part of Honeywell’s Green Hydrogen program.
Crude palm oil is one of the more than ten renewable raw materials that Neste uses to produce a range of renewable products, including renewable diesel. Palm oil represents approximately 20% of Neste’s renewable raw material usage annually. Increased pressure is created as the belt passes over rollers which decrease in diameter.

In cases where hydrogen will be shipped (as hydrogen or its derivatives), it will eventually be distributed on land using hydrogen pipelines, which makes transport via pipelines a critical transportation mode for the gas. Europe, with its extensive gas grid, is well placed to make the jump.
BMW is testing the use of renewable HVO100 renewable diesel for parts delivery in Germany. They commute between the BMW Group Supply Centre in Eching, just north of Munich, to deliver warehouse parts to the plant in the city for production—a round trip of a good 40 km each time.
An upgrade from the previous fueling station offering oil, gas, hydrogen, electric charging services, the integrated complex can produce 1,000 kilograms of hydrogen a day, with a purity of 99.999%. Sinopec Fuel Oil Sales Co., As part of Sinopec’s commitment to becoming China’s No.1
The latest crash in oil prices once again raises this prospect. On the one hand, lower oil prices – despite the recent rebound, prices are still down sharply from a few months ago – can cause some E&Ps to want to hold off on drilling new wells. oil production aloft at a time when low prices are starting to curtail drilling activity.

The cleaner engine is able to deliver ultra-low NO x by managing exhaust gas temperatures to ensure rapid catalyst light-off and by maintaining aftertreatment temperatures at optimum operating conditions in all driving conditions.
In cooperation with a major European supplier, a new oil-lubricated common-rail pump had therefore been developed. An electrically driven compressor for precise exhaust gas recirculation is also used. This is done via exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). The project still in the pre-competitive phase, Soltic said.
Additionally, Governor Newsom requested that the California Air Resources Board (CARB) analyze pathways to phase out oil extraction across the state by no later than 2045. California’s production of oil has been steadily dropping since 1985. According to the California Energy Commission, California oil represented 34.9%
