Electrification: Technologies and innovations that advance the upstream industry
June 30, 2022
Sponsored by: Schlumberger and Schneider Electric
The upstream industry initially examined oilfield electrification to obtain greater operational efficiencies. But now, it is also a means to reduce emissions. Accordingly, the industry has developed new methods that include electrification of various drilling functions and onshore and offshore production, as well as better electric motors for frac pumps, electrification of subsea systems and electro-optical technology for CT well interventions. This e-book contains recent technical articles that represent these technologies, as well as others.

E-Frac: Technologies and innovations that advance the upstream industry
July 28, 2022
Sponsored by: GeoDynamics, Joliet Electric, MTU
In their continued efforts to improve completion efficiencies while addressing ESG issues (including emissions) and intrusive governmental oversight, operators today are embracing electrically powered hydraulic fracturing (e-frac) solutions. These systems reduce fuel costs, cut emissions and improved operational reliability. The latter point includes much-longer service life for various pressure pumping components. This e-book contains a selection of articles that exemplify and discuss this significant operational trend.

From data to decision: Fast-tracking CO₂ storage site selection
May 07, 2025
Sponsored by: Baker Hughes
As carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects ramp up worldwide, one of the biggest early-stage challenges remains: identifying viable storage sites with confidence, speed, and clarity. Most current solutions fall short—fragmented data, limited subsurface insight, and uncertainty in economic viability slow down the decision-making process, especially for industrial players who lack in-house geoscience expertise.
In this webinar, we’ll explore a new, integrated approach that combines decades of global subsurface data with advanced analytics to deliver reliable, actionable insights for CO₂ storage screening. Tailored especially for depleted gas fields—known for their superior storage efficiency—this workflow fills a critical gap in the market by enabling faster, better-informed decisions on where to store CO₂ and whether it’s worth the investment. Join us as we unpack how this solution reduces time-to-development and brings together geological, geophysical, and economic factors into a single, streamlined view—built for those who need confidence from day one.

Best Practices to Improve Design and Operations of Sulfur Recovery Units with Aspen HYSYS®
May 14, 2025
Sponsored by: AspenTech
Sulfur recovery units (SRUs) are critical to process plants to ensure product quality and meet environmental regulations. However, SRUs present challenges with limited performance insights due to unpredictable catalyst degradation and feed composition-dependent optimization. Additionally, varied plant configurations and rapidly evolving technology add to the complexity.
Join SGS Sulphur Experts to learn how Aspen HYSYS® process simulation—powered by Sulsim Sulfur Recovery™ technology—enables you to:
• Avoid upsets and compliance failure
• Maximize sulfur recovery
• Prevent catalyst deactivation
• Minimize incinerator fuel use
A Q&A session will follow the presentation.
