SPE President Terry Palisch is joined by Jennifer Miskimins, department head of petroleum engineering at the Colorado School of Mines, to discuss the academic aspect of petroleum engineering and its future.
Developing alternative power supplies with wide-scale reliability, dependability, and minimization or elimination of GHG emissions within feasible capex/opex scenarios is the brass ring of sustainability and energy security—and data are helping us get there.
In the pursuit of sustainable industrial operations, three pivotal objectives emerge: risk reduction, safety assurance, and cost minimization. Integrating these objectives into digital transformation strategies enables operators to effectively manage emissions and achieve success.
