SPE Online Education: Introduction to Petroleum Geomechanics: Three Part Webinar Series

This three-part webinar series is focused on introducing the basics of geomechanics and geomechanics services to a wide audience - from service approvers (management), to engineers and scientists who might be called upon to support and evaluate the value of geomechanics efforts but who do not have specific training in geomechanics. While presented as a three-part series, the webinars are laid out in a fashion from more general to more technical. The first webinar is intended to present a high-level explanation and background on geomechanics for individuals who would both consider the need for geomechanics as well as determine the value for a given application. What geomechanics is (and isn't) will be presented as well as some history and explanation of what geomechanics technical competence might look like. The second and third webinars are focused on specific technical issues surrounding geomechanics: formation stress, formation pressure, formation mechanical properties (and strength) and the influence of geometry.

SPE Online Education: Oil and Natural Gas Technology Symposium: Focus on Sustainability

As the energy transition becomes more and more crucial to our everyday lives, it is important to create an open dialog connecting the oil and gas industry with policymakers. The Oil and Natural Gas Technology Symposium: Focus on Sustainability, held virtually on 6–7 April 2021, created an opportunity for this open dialog. This event was collaboratively developed by the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE), the American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG), and the Society of Exploration Geophysicists (SEG). The purpose of this program was to share innovations that improve efficiency, sustainability, reduce environmental impact, and enhance recovery. Additionally, the speakers addressed the role of oil and natural gas in the coming energy transition.

SPE Online Education: Climate Series: Methane

Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas, with a Global Warming Potential over 80 times more powerful than carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere over a twenty-year timeframe. Methane is responsible for about a quarter of today's global warming (IPCC, 2013). If the world is to reach the 1.5 C (or even a 2 C) global temperature target, deep reductions in methane emissions must be achieved by 2030 as part of holistic efforts to meet climate goals under the Paris Agreement (IPCC, 2018). And because methane's atmospheric lifespan is relatively short – 10 to 12 years – actions to reduce methane emissions can rapidly contribute to bend the curve away from dangerous warming, while also delivering air quality benefits. The oil and gas sector is one of the largest man-made emission sources, estimated to be responsible for circa one-quarter of global anthropogenic methane emissions (IEA, 2020) The latest data shows that around 3.6 trillion cubic feet of natural gas escaped into the atmosphere in 2012 from global oil and gas operations.
