Petroleum is a complex mixture of many compounds. Regulatory and technical guidance documents commonly focus on the hydrocarbon components of that mixture, or perceived risks that they present. However, focusing on a specific area of concern often causes practitioners to overlook other aspects of a release. For example, concerns related to exposure to total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) risks may be overlooked while pursuing concerns related to light non-aqueous phase liquid (LNAPL) recovery or petroleum vapor intrusion (PVI). This class is designed to provide a basic overview of hydrocarbon behavior in the subsurface and how to scientifically assess concerns arising from the release of petroleum products into the environment. It will highlight key issues that help identify and manage TPH, LNAPL, and PVI risks together. Key concepts will include: Fundamentals of petroleum hydrocarbonsPetroleum chemistryHow TPH, LNAPL, and PVI are relatedBuilding an integrated conceptual site model (CSM) What is a CSM…what is its purpose?When is a CSM complete?Identifying and managing the risks from petroleum hydrocarbonsDefining LNAPL risks based on acute, saturation, composition, or aesthetic concernsEmphasize the importance of biodegradation in risk management decision makingHow to select remedial goals and remedies that align with your goals This course is based upon three separate Guidance Documents developed by ITRC that address the course content in detail:Light Non-Aqueous Phase Liquid (LNAPL), LNAPL Site Management: LCSM Evolution, Decision Process, and Remedial Technologies (LNAPL-3) Petroleum Vapor Intrusion (PVI), Fundamentals of Screening, Investigation, and Management (PVI-1) Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH), TPH Risk Evaluation at Petroleum-Contaminated Sites (TPHRisk-1) To view this archive online or download the slides associated with this seminar, please visit http://www.clu-in.org/conf/itrc/Hydrocarbons_051926/

The following article of the Energy industry is: “Hydrocarbon Exploration and Production: A Strategic Outlook” by Gerardo Clemente, Independent Contributor.

In this episode, Life from the AFPM Annual Meeting, Arun Arora, CTO of Chevron Lummus Global, discusses innovative catalyst portfolios, future-proofing assets with advanced technologies and sustainable solutions in hydrocarbon processing. Gain insights into how CLG is leading industry transformation with integrated solutions, digital advancements and processing technologies.

Reconnaissance Energy Africa or ReconAfrica CEO Brian Reinsborough joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the commencement of production testing operations at the Kavango West 1X discovery well, marking a key step forward in the company's exploration and development efforts. Reinsborough confirmed that testing operations have begun on schedule following receipt of all necessary regulatory permits. Work crews are now on site preparing the well, with critical equipment—including a production liner sourced from North America—already delivered. The company has also secured contracts with major oilfield service providers Halliburton and Schlumberger Oilfield Services, alongside engaging local suppliers to support operations. Ongoing analysis has further strengthened the project's outlook. Incorporating additional rock data and updated log analysis, ReconAfrica has refined its petrophysical interpretation, now identifying 74 metres (246 feet) of net hydrocarbon pay in the Huttenberg formation—an increase from the previously reported 64 metres (210 feet). This improvement highlights the growing potential of the discovery as technical understanding of the reservoir advances. As operator, the company plans to conduct production testing across six optimized zones, including three within the Huttenberg formation and three in the deeper Elandshoek formation. In total, approximately 345 metres (1,132 feet) of prospective interval will be isolated and perforated for testing, providing a comprehensive evaluation of the well's production capabilities. Beyond Namibia, Reinsborough also provided an update on the company's activities in Gabon, specifically within the Ngulu block. ReconAfrica is currently reprocessing 3D seismic data across key areas, including the Loba oil discovery. Upon completion, the company intends to select an appraisal drilling location and commission a third-party resource report, expected by the end of 2026. The Ngulu block spans approximately 1,214 square kilometres in shallow offshore waters of central Gabon and is strategically positioned near several producing oil fields. The asset includes the Loba discovery and more than 28 identified prospects across both pre-salt and post-salt plays, underscoring its significant exploration upside. Overall, the initiation of production testing at Kavango West, combined with ongoing evaluation work in Gabon, positions ReconAfrica to further define its resource base and advance toward potential development opportunities across its portfolio. #proactiveinvestors #reconnaissanceenergyafricaltd #tsxv #reco #otcqx #recaf #NamibiaOil #EnergyExploration #OilAndGas #ExplorationFinancing #Oversubscribed #NamibiaEnergy #KavangoBasin #GabonOffshore #NguluBlock #LobaDiscovery #SeismicReprocessing #AppraisalDrilling #StrategicInvestor #BWEnergy #EnergyMarkets #UpstreamEnergy #ProactiveInvestors

This week on Inside the Economy, we explore the inflation outlook, affordability, and hydrocarbons alongside urea prices. Spending in February grew about 3 percent year over year, which may indicate a relatively strong consumer. What can the uptick in consumer spending be attributed to? Inflation has remained elevated in recent data. What are the projections for a future rate cut or hike? Housing affordability remains strained, especially as the cost of building new homes stays elevated. In addition, with interest rates and other costs rising post-COVID, the annual mortgage payment as a share of income remains high. What are the current levels of monthly property insurance premiums, and what factors are built into them? Regarding energy, the United States is now a net exporter. Are regions such as the European union and China primarily net importers or next exporters of energy? Tune in to learn more. Key Takeaways: • PCE Core CPI at 3.1% (YoY) • National home price to income ratio was 4.93 in the fourth quarter of 2025 • Crude Oil at $95.36 a barrel

️ “Wait… where did the liquid go?” That was my reaction about three seconds into a demonstration at a HazMat conference in Edmond, Oklahoma. This was my conversation with John Brinkman, President of Imbibitive Technologies. On the table in front of us was a container with some small white particles in it. They looked like salt or sugar grains. Nothing special. John picked up a bottle of paint thinner and poured it into the container. I expected the liquid to pool at the bottom. Instead…the liquid disappeared. Not evaporated. Not wiped up. The free liquid phase was gone in seconds. John smiled and said: “Once the liquid embibes into the polymer, the liquid phase is eliminated.” Here's what actually happened Those tiny particles were IMBIBER BEADS®. They're oil-sensitive superabsorbent polymers. Most people know superabsorbent polymers from disposable diapers, which absorb water. These beads do the opposite. They are engineered to absorb organic liquids like: • crude oil • gasoline • diesel • solvents …and they ignore water completely. The chemistry is wild Each bead is a solid polymer sphere roughly 150–400 microns in size (about a grain of salt). When hydrocarbons contact the bead: • the liquid diffuses into the polymer matrix • the bead swells several times its original size • the hydrocarbon becomes locked inside the polymer The result: No free liquid phase. Why that matters.. Most spill cleanup materials today are adsorbents — think polypropylene pads. They coat liquids on the surface. Meaning the hydrocarbon can still: • drip • spread • release vapors IMBIBER BEADS® eliminate the liquid phase, which can: • reduce secondary contamination • lower hazardous vapor off-gassing • simplify containment and recovery The craziest part? This chemistry was invented in 1968 by polymer chemist Dr. Richard Hall. More than 50 years ago. Today the technology is being applied to: • oil spill response • refinery containment • stormwater filtration • hazmat cleanup • oil-water separators Even more interesting… Hydrocarbons captured in the beads can be used in energy-from-waste systems producing 15,000+ BTUs per pound. Cleanup material → recoverable energy. This is why I love stepping outside the oil & gas silo. When chemists, engineers, hazmat responders, and energy operators collaborate…you discover technologies that change how problems get solved. Sometimes the most disruptive technology in the room…is a polymer bead smaller than a grain of salt. If you work in: • oil & gas • refining • pipeline response • hazmat • environmental remediation What applications could you see for something like this? Curious to hear your thoughts. www.imbiberbeads.com⁠� #Energy #OilAndGas #HazMat #EnvironmentalTech #SpillResponse #Engineering #PolymerScience #IndustrialSafety

We were honored this week to welcome Ali Moshiri, CEO and President of Amos Global Energy, for a Special Edition COBT focused on Venezuela. Ali is the former President of Chevron Africa-Latin America and spent nearly 40 years at Chevron. He joined the company in 1978 as a petroleum engineer and went on to hold a wide range of senior technical, strategic, and leadership roles, ultimately overseeing Chevron's upstream operations across Africa and Latin America, including key positions in Venezuela and the broader region. Since retiring from Chevron in 2017, Ali has served as an advisor to Chevron and is currently President and CEO of Amos Global Energy, a Houston-based upstream independent focused on building a diversified portfolio across Latin America (with selective investments in the U.S. and Africa) through an integrated direct investment model. With deep operational, geopolitical, and strategic experience across global energy markets, Ali brings a unique and long-term perspective to today's discussion. In our conversation, Ali describes the on-the-ground conditions based on frequent travel to Venezuela and argues there is widespread misunderstanding of the country driven by years of narrative focus on migration, crime, and deportation rather than fundamentals. He details Venezuela's fundamentals including resource size and accessibility, proximity to the U.S., and the historical role of Gulf Coast heavy-oil refinery conversions and the light/heavy differential in making Venezuela barrels attractive. We discuss where development is likely to concentrate, the production ramp and capital needs, why in his mind the clearest lever for Venezuelan recovery is increasing oil output, workforce and execution constraints, the role of service companies, and who is most likely to invest first. Ali notes the key to mobilizing capital is a credible public-private partnership structure that can be written into a term sheet, alongside securing a lead private investor. He explains China's presence as largely commercial and loan driven, and Russia's as more geopolitical, and he doesn't expect either to materially expand or compete for incremental assets. We explore why prioritizing stability through a managed transition (including Venezuela's Vice President, and now Acting President, Delcy Rodríguez's role) is essential to convert investor interest into commitment, and he frames the recent vote more as a referendum than a fully competitive election, with a later phase needed for a truly democratic process. We touch on OPEC's incentives to keep Venezuela “inside the tent,” where near-term investment should concentrate, why midstream is less attractive today, the longer-term upside in gas and LNG, and much more. We ended by asking Ali for his ten-year outlook on global oil demand and the sources of future supply. As mentioned, details about Venezuela's reform of the Organic Law on Hydrocarbons are linked here. We greatly appreciate Ali for sharing his candid insights into a complex situation. The Veriten team shared a few quick comments to kick off the show. Mike Bradley flagged two themes: commodities volatility has dominated the year so far, with oil and gas prices swinging sharply due to geopolitical issues, while metals and Bitcoin have hit highs and then pulled back. He also noted that during recent Q4 earnings calls, oil majors and early-reporting service companies have faced many questions about Venezuela, but few have clear answers, making the discussion with Ali very timely. Arjun Murti added that global oil demand continues to grow, and while U.S. shale should hold a long-term plateau, it's unlikely to repeat its outsized contribution to global supply growth, raising the question of what comes after shale. He pointed to Venezuela's long-term potential, recalling the suc

Devon Energy and Coterra Energy's newly announced merger didn't come as a huge surprise. They have highly complementary assets in the Permian and the Anadarko and their deal promises $1 billion or more in synergy-related savings. Finally — and this is important — their combination had been urged on by an activist investor.

Kent J. Williamson - American Heat Engine: Hydrocarbons and the Power of the United States - Coal. Oil. Natural gas. This is the incredible story of how hydrocarbons have energized the United States and its people. Hydrocarbons, naturally occurring combinations of mostly hydrogen and carbon atoms with almost limitless uses, are much more than simply “fossil fuels”; they are the lifeblood of modern human civilization. They are central to economic and geopolitical power, even determining the fate of nations and empires. They have played a critical role in U.S. history, and they will be no less important to its future. In American Heat Engine: Hydrocarbons and the Power of the United States, join Kent J. Williamson on an epic journey through American hydrocarbon history, weaving together the amazing pasts of coal, oil, and natural gas in America, from the country's earliest days all the way to today and beyond. You will see how a now-almost-forgotten form of coal sparked the American Industrial Revolution, witness the birth of the American oil industry and its production of everything from lamp fuel to jet fuel, and follow natural gas as it transforms from an unwanted byproduct to a fuel and feedstock so ubiquitous that there are now millions of miles of pipelines carrying it across America! You'll also discover how the United States strategically employed its hydrocarbon resources to defeat totalitarianism and help usher in a period of unprecedented global prosperity. Kent J. Williamson grew up in Littleton, Colorado, not far from Coal Mine Road. He now lives in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the Oil Capital of the World, in a home with several natural gas-fueled appliances and a propane grill out back.

Professor Tim Evans of Middlesex University rounds off 2025 with his countdown of the 10 most significant issues. 10: Trade frictions and international relations are moving away from blockification and becoming messier. 9: Net Zero is on the wane and nuclear power is on the rise. Hydrocarbons could be around for longer than expected. 8: Productivity problems in Britain continue to bedevil the economy. 7: The lack of success in welfare reform, with inflation continuing to exacerbate poverty. 6: The housing crisis and the rise in homelessness. Red tape and bureaucracy continue to hold housebuilding back. 5: Fiscal strategy and stealth taxes. The policy of borrowing now and paying later is very dicey. 4: The NHS. It still in crisis, despite tens of billions of pounds poured in. 3: The cost of living crisis. Inflation is a hidden tax and most people have not seen their wages increase significantly for 20 years. 2: Immigration, which is fuelling anxiety and division, not just in Britain but throughout Europe. 1: Stagnating economic growth. We could now be in a recession. People are down and depressed and expect things to get worse. The Government is injecting misery and pessimism without understanding the consequence of their actions.

In this episode of Energy Newsbeat – Conversations in Energy, Stuart Turley interviews Kent Williamson, author of American Heat Engine, Hydrocarbons and the Power of the United States. They discuss the vital role of hydrocarbons in American history, touching on topics such as the impact of coal, oil, and natural gas, and how the U.S. has utilized private mineral rights to become a leading energy producer. Kent also highlights energy security issues, particularly in California, and the global importance of LPG in providing energy solutions to underserved populations. The conversation explores energy's complex role in shaping geopolitics and the economy, with Kent stressing the need for a better understanding of the energy industry.We are in an energy revolution. Energy consumers are waking up to the fact that high energy prices come from "Green Energy Policies" that impact and hurt the environment and economy more than they provide electricity. Kent's book tells us how we got here and has some great insights as a guide for where we need to go.I look forward to more conversations with Kent as we move into the next energy era.You can get the book here: https://a.co/d/fzFJ86VFollow Kent on his LinedIn Here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kent-j-williamson-830bb617/Highlights of the Podcast 00:00 - Intro01:04 - Kent's Career and Energy Industry Insights04:09 - History of Energy in America05:07 - Book Launch and Pricing08:25 - Energy Security and Coal's Role12:23 - Energy's Humanitarian Impact16:34 - Energy Production and National Security20:36 - California's Energy Crisis22:47 - Strategic Hydrocarbon Bridges31:06 - Energy Exports and the Gulf Coast35:02 - Future Plans and Book Editions39:14 - LPG and Global Energy Solutions40:13 - Conclusion and Future Talks

Petroleum is a complex mixture of many compounds. Regulatory and technical guidance documents commonly focus on the hydrocarbon components of that mixture, or perceived risks that they present. However, focusing on a specific area of concern often causes practitioners to overlook other aspects of a release. For example, concerns related to exposure to total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) risks may be overlooked while pursuing concerns related to light non-aqueous phase liquid (LNAPL) recovery or petroleum vapor intrusion (PVI). This class is designed to provide a basic overview of hydrocarbon behavior in the subsurface and how to scientifically assess concerns arising from the release of petroleum products into the environment. It will highlight key issues that help identify and manage TPH, LNAPL, and PVI risks together. Key concepts will include: Fundamentals of petroleum hydrocarbonsPetroleum chemistryHow TPH, LNAPL, and PVI are relatedBuilding an integrated conceptual site model (CSM) What is a CSM…what is its purpose?When is a CSM complete?Identifying and managing the risks from petroleum hydrocarbonsDefining LNAPL risks based on acute, saturation, composition, or aesthetic concernsEmphasize the importance of biodegradation in risk management decision makingHow to select remedial goals and remedies that align with your goals This course is based upon three separate Guidance Documents developed by ITRC that address the course content in detail:Light Non-Aqueous Phase Liquid (LNAPL), LNAPL Site Management: LCSM Evolution, Decision Process, and Remedial Technologies (LNAPL-3) Petroleum Vapor Intrusion (PVI), Fundamentals of Screening, Investigation, and Management (PVI-1) Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH), TPH Risk Evaluation at Petroleum-Contaminated Sites (TPHRisk-1) To view this archive online or download the slides associated with this seminar, please visit http://www.clu-in.org/conf/itrc/Hydrocarbons_041725/

One daunting challenge to addressing climate change is to kick our addiction to hydrocarbons. But this is easier said than done. Hydrocarbons remain the fuel of modernity. And a transition to renewable energy requires massive state intervention. How do we get from our carbon-based present to a green future? Especially in regions like Eastern Europe and Chin, that still rely heavily on oil, gas and coal. In this third event in our series, Eurasian Environments, the Eurasian Knot has paired Pawel Cyzyak, an expert on energy in Eastern Europe, and Zhaojin Zeng, an economic historian of China, to discuss the legacies of state socialist economies, the challenges of transitioning to renewables, their past and present reliance on Russia, the role of geopolitics, and how a turn to EVs presents different challenges, especially as electricity is still generated by coal. Guests:Zhaojin Zeng is an Assistant Professor in the Department of History, Philosophy and Geography at Texas A&M University. His first book project is “Engineering Modern China: Industrial Factories and the Transformation of the Chinese Economy in the Long Twentieth Century.”Pawel Czyzak is an economist, engineer, expert on climate and energy policy, and author of several dozen publications on energy transformation in Europe. He is currently associated with the global energy think-tank Ember. As a consultant he has advised, among others, the largest European energy companies and the World Bank. He's also an aspiring farmer.Send us your sounds! PatreonKnotty News Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A decade ago, 21 youth plaintiffs in Oregon filed a lawsuit asserting that the government had violated their due process rights of life, liberty, and property by encouraging and permitting the combustion of hydrocarbon fuels such as oil and gas.The plaintiffs were represented by Our Children's Trust, a litigation firm based in Eugene.The case, known as Juliana v. United States, was dismissed by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in 2020 for lack of standing and upheld in February 2021. An amended suit was dismissed by the Ninth Circuit in May 2024 again over lack of standing, and the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear the case in March 2025.The proponents are now attempting to put their hydrocarbon paranoia into the Oregon Constitution. On March 26 the state legislature held a hearing on SJR 28, which would add the following language to the Constitution:"All people, including children and future generations, have the fundamental right to a clean, safe and healthy environment."This is just performative politics. Hydrocarbons power the modern world; but if lawmakers think the public wants to return to the 18th century, they should vote to outlaw fossil fuels right now and run for re-election on that record.

In the past decade, China has ramped up its engagement in the Middle East, a region which is far from China geographically, but carries growing importance in China's foreign policy. Economically, China is the biggest importer of the Middle East oil, particularly from Saudi Arabia and Iraq. Chinese state-owned enterprises have invested heavily in the region under the Belt and Road Initiative with an emphasis on physical and digital infrastructure, including telecommunications, 5G connectivity, submarine optic cables, and security information systems.  Diplomatically, China played a role in brokering a deal between Saudi Arabia and Iran, two longstanding regional rivals. Beijing has also been instrumental in expanding the BRICS multilateral mechanism to include four Middle East countries. Securing access to vital natural resources is a key driver of Beijing's intensified engagement in the Middle East. But China's interests are broader and encompass economic, geopolitical and strategic considerations.To further discuss China's interests and evolving role in the Middle East, Michael Schuman joins host Bonnie Glaser. Michael is a nonresident senior fellow at the Global China Hub of the Atlantic Council and an author and journalist with more than 25 years of on-the-ground experience in Asia.  He is the co-author of a recently published report by the Atlantic Council titled China's Middle East policy shift from ‘hedging' to ‘wedging.' Timestamps[00:00] Start[02:06] China's Interest in the Middle East[04:23] Evaluating China's Strategy of “Wedging” [06:51] Evaluating China's Position of Neutrality[10:17] Factors Driving China's Middle Eastern Strategy [13:46] Chinese Bilateral and Multilateral Engagement [16:08] China's Energy Ties with the Middle East[19:41] Implications for the United States[24:19] Limits to Chinese Engagement

Halen Mattison and Luke Neise are co-founders at General Galactic. General Galactic is a seed-stage e-fuels startup out of El Segundo in the Los Angeles area that converts captured CO₂ into synthetic fuels, starting with natural gas. They claim that their end product is a carbon-neutral drop-in replacement for natural gas that can run in all of today's vast gas infrastructure. In their view, any company or country can in theory become a gas producer. The two founders met at Stanford and went on to early careers in aerospace, Halen at SpaceX and Luke at Varda Space Industries. As they'll share, the vision for General Galactic was ultimately inspired by technologies that are used in space today, which they felt could help solve the energy transition here on Earth.In this episode, we cover: [1:43] The origin of the name General Galactic (GG)[3:07] Halen and Luke's backgrounds[7:00] An overview of GG[8:14] How GG's technology leverages existing infrastructure[14:15] GG and its connection to SAF[16:55] How GG chose to focus on natural gas[19:18] Differences between CNG and RNG[22:44] An overview of LNG[26:06] The Jones Act and its impact on fuel transportation[28:14] GG's drop-in replacement and its economic implications[31:02] The footprint of GG's “Genesis modules”[34:49] The importance of location for GG's hardware[38:05] Addressing methane emissions concerns[40:19] GG's technology readiness and commercialization pathways[42:11] GG's business model and go-to-market strategy[45:12] GG's financing to date[49:20] Who GG wants to connect withAdditional Resources:Our World in Data - Energy MixEstimates of Methane Emissions by Segment in the United States*The claims made in this episode are based on current research and theoretical models.

SpaceTime Series 27 Episode 146*Supernova's Potential to End the Dark Matter SearchAstronomers are eagerly awaiting a nearby supernova that could finally solve the mystery of dark matter. A new study suggests that axions, hypothetical particles, could be discovered within seconds of a supernova's gamma-ray burst. The Fermi Gamma Ray Space Telescope might detect these gamma rays, offering insights into the mass of QCD axions. However, the rarity of such supernovae and the telescope's limited field of view pose challenges. Researchers are considering launching a fleet of gamma-ray telescopes, named GALAX, to ensure comprehensive coverage.*Magnetic Tornadoes at Jupiter's PolesA recent study reveals that Jupiter's poles are home to magnetic tornadoes that generate Earth-sized concentrations of hydrocarbon haze. These phenomena, visible only in ultraviolet light, are linked to the planet's strong magnetic fields. The findings, based on Hubble Space Telescope images, shed light on the unique atmospheric dynamics of Jupiter, contrasting with Earth's auroral processes.*Arrival of the World's Biggest Digital Camera at NASANASA's Goddard Space Flight Centre has received the Wide Field Instrument, the largest digital camera ever built, for the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. This advanced camera will offer an unprecedented panoramic view of the universe, aiding in the study of dark energy, dark matter, and exoplanets. Scheduled for launch in 2027, Roman's capabilities will surpass those of current Space telescopes.The Science RobertA new study links prolonged sedentary behaviour with increased heart disease risk, even among active individuals. Research highlights the crucial ecological role of large sharks, threatened by overfishing and habitat loss. Palaeontologists use dinosaur faeces to trace the evolutionary rise of dinosaurs. Advances in lithium battery technology promise safer and longer-lasting power sources, potentially revolutionising energy storage.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.comwww.bitesz.com
