The global push toward net-zero emissions is accelerating demand for technologies that can reduce emissions across shipping, power generation and heavy industry. With the International Maritime Organization (IMO) targeting a 20–30% reduction in shipping greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, alongside growing carbon-pricing mechanisms and tighter emissions standards, companies are increasinglyContinue Reading
The proposed Kanata LNG floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) project in British Columbia is progressing toward pre-front-end engineering and design (pre-FEED) studies, with an early 2028 Final Investment Decision (FID) being targeted. South Korea’s Hanwha Ocean is considering an expanded role in the project as the partners advance plans forContinue Reading
Pipeline operators are moving beyond periodic integrity assessments toward Pipeline Integrity Intelligence, an integrated approach that combines inspection data, hydraulic modelling, SCADA, GIS, maintenance records and artificial intelligence. Traditional pipeline integrity management relies heavily on scheduled inspections, anomaly assessments, repairs and subsequent inspection campaigns. While these processes remain essential, modernContinue Reading
The Democratic Republic of the Congo’s Ministry of Hydrocarbons is preparing to publish a full environmental audit of oil producer Perenco by the end of September, following preliminary findings that identified pollution associated with its operations. The preliminary assessment found impacts on soil and air quality, with ageing oil infrastructureContinue Reading
