Rosneft acquires Tomtor rare earth deposit in Russia

1 month ago | offshore-technology.com | Tiash Saha

Russian oil producer Rosneft has acquired the Tomtor rare earth metal deposit in the north of the Yakutia region in Siberia by taking complete control of Vostok Engineering, the project operator, as per the official state registry of Russian companies. The move follows President Vladimir Putin’s directive to expedite the Tomtor field’s development, reported Reuters. The acquisition, completed on 20 May, is a step towards reducing Russia’s reliance on imports, particularly from China.
Uncertainty: worse than tariffs, better than decoupling - Offshore Technology

1 month ago | offshore-technology.com | Eugenia Perozo

Last week, over 5,000 delegates gathered in a sprawling convention centre just outside Washington DC to answer one question: is the US still the most attractive foreign direct investment (FDI) destination in the world? The SelectUSA Investment Summit, established in 2007, is the US’s most important event to promote FDI. It gathers international businesses, industry leaders, economic development organisations and representatives from all US states.
Is it feasible to repurpose oil and gas pipelines for hydrogen?

1 month ago | offshore-technology.com | Claire Jenns

While the future of oil and gas (O&G) infrastructure within the energy transition is uncertain, the long-distance transportation of energy resources will remain essential for global supply. As part of long-term diversification strategies, the hydrocarbon industry is increasingly exploring the repurposing of pipelines for hydrogen, but persistent financial barriers have limited broader development.
Petrobras discovers high-quality oil in Santos Basin's pre-salt layer

1 month ago | offshore-technology.com | Tiash Saha

State-owned Brazilian producer Petrobras has discovered “excellent quality, contaminant-free oil” in the pre-salt layer of Brazil’s Santos Basin. The discovery was made at the exploratory well 3-BRSA-1396D-SPS in the Aram block, located 248km from Santos, São Paulo, in waters 1,952m deep. The drilling of the well revealed an oil-bearing interval, confirmed through various methods including electrical profiles, gas detection and fluid sampling.
How is the UK developing its offshore hydrogen economy?

1 month ago | offshore-technology.com | Claire Jenns

The UK Government’s consultation on ‘Building the North Sea’s Energy Future’ groups together offshore wind, carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) and hydrogen as crucial technologies to secure net-zero requirements as oil and gas extraction in the North Sea declines. The UK currently has 24 low-carbon hydrogen plants in operation and 140 are under various stages of development, with 90 in early development phases.
Scaramucci and Kinzinger assess Trump 2.0

2 months ago | offshore-technology.com | Douglas Blakey

Former White House Communications Director, Anthony Scaramucci, is rarely lost for words. But ask him to set out the positives to date of the second Trump presidential term and you get close to a short answer. He manages the grand total of just two such examples of Trump policy wins. “There is going to be crypto-friendly, pro-crypto regulation. I see that as very positive. I think they’ve done a good job on the border.” And that is about it.
Beyond PFAS: Innovating for a future without forever chemicals

2 months ago | offshore-technology.com | Miranda McLaren

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have been used to create products in just about every industry since the 1950s. Found in everything from carpets and clothing to food packaging, cosmetics, and fire extinguishing foam, the synthetic chemicals are ubiquitous. However, growing sustainability concerns challenge the dominance of PFAS, with some research suggesting that exposure to certain PFAS materials may result in negative health outcomes.
Navigating deepwater drilling regulations for the oil and gas industry

2 months ago | offshore-technology.com | Claire Jenns

Deepwater drilling is becoming increasing important in the oil and gas (O&G) industry as shallower reserves are depleted. According to Global Energy Monitor’s Global Oil and Gas Extraction Tracker, in 2024, resources totalling approximately eight billion barrels of oil equivalent were announced in new offshore discoveries. Moving into deepwater environments is generally harder than onshore O&G extraction thanks to a combination of technical, economic and environmental factors.
Breaking temperature barriers: Selecting the right labyrinth seal for high-temperature turbomachinery applications

2 months ago | offshore-technology.com | Miranda McLaren

In the energy sector, compressing gases and liquids facilitates easier storage, transportation, and processing. The average operating temperature of an industrial compressor used in oil and gas applications is typically between 93°C to 200°C (200°F-400°F), though this can depend on a range of factors such as ambient conditions, compression ratio, and the equipment’s size and efficiency.
