This edition of the Oil and Gas (O&G) TOE features information on the use of modular and multi-stage well completion system to access natural fractures to increase oil productivity from unconventional wells. The TOE also covers innovations based on the use of methane pyrolysis processes for natural gas splitting to generate low carbon energy and significantly reduce carbon emissions. The other focal point of the TOE is the use of biological dispersants and woody sponges for non-toxic oil spill remediation. The TOE additionally provides insights on the use of integrated metal oxide catalysts to reduce the combustion temperature of natural gas to achieve process stability, to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions. The TOE also provides latest innovations in the conversion of petroleum by-products like hydrogen sulfide into hydrogen and sulfur that can be used in several high-end applications and the use of carbon negative sustainable aviation fuels from renewable feedstock to replace conventional jet fuels
The Oil and Gas TOE provides intelligence on innovations pertaining to technologies, products, and processes, along with strategic insights, in the upstream and downstream processes in the oil and gas industry.
The Energy and Utilities cluster provides global insights and intelligence on a wide variety of disruptive emerging technologies and platforms ranging from energy storage, advanced batteries, solar and wind energy, to unconventional oil, bioenergy, geothermal energy, and energy transmission.
