This paper examines the volumes of oil that can and cannot be used up to 2035 during the transition to a low-carbon global energy system using the global energy systems model, TIAM-UCL and the ‘Bottom up Economic and Geological Oil field production model’ (BUEGO). Globally in a scenario allowing the widespread adoption of carbon capture and storage (CCS) nearly 500 billion barrels of existing 2...

Coal was one of the catalysts Industrial Revolution which started in England and spread to other parts Europe. It provided main source primary energy for industry transportation.

This paper discusses the policy issues facing the country of Sno TomJ e PrRncipe, a small island country in the Gulf of Guinea, given the discovery and imminent exploitation of large reserves of oil in its territorial waters. While presenting huge opportunities, the history of other African oil-exporting countries demonstrates that there are dangers as well. An appropriate policy for macro bala...

Induced seismicity has been recognized as a concern in subsurface industrial operation, and particularly at fluid-injection sites in major oil and gas exploitation plays, where hydraulic stimulations are conducted to increase rock permeability. Induced seismicity occurs also in Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS), where hydraulic fracturing is used to accelerate heat extraction from the rock. If ...

Oil field is a very important non-renewable resource in China, which plays role economic strategy. In the process of oil development, water flooding technology can effectively improve production quality, provide strong technical support for our exploitation, and help to promote sustainable development enterprises. However, there are many influencing factors exploitation oilfield, so workers nee...
