Petroleum Economist talked to Dr Ian Palmer, solar space scientist turned oilfield engineer, about his book How Oil and Gas Companies are Pivoting Toward Climate Change, covering carbon capture, net-zero targets, batteries and the future of fossil fuels.

A critical component of carbon capture, utilization and storage is the transport of carbon dioxide (CO2), a process requiring sophisticated infrastructure capable of addressing the chemical, thermodynamic and regulatory challenges unique to this greenhouse gas. This episode details the challenges and solutions in transporting CO2 in pipelines.

In this episode, Carbon Economist sat down with Michael Kolodner, Global Renewable Energy and U.S. Power Leader at Marsh Energy, to explore how businesses can manage risk in an evolving energy landscape. From H2 infrastructure to carbon capture, Michael breaks down the unique risks facing the sector and how Marsh supports clients through policy shifts, emerging technologies, and complex supply chains. Whether you're a veteran of the power industry or a tech entrant navigating energy demands, this episode sheds light on the critical role of strategic risk management in enabling innovation and capital flow in the energy transition.

In this episode, adapted from the Gulf Energy Information webcast, the editors of World Oil, Petroleum Economist, Pipeline & Gas Journal, Hydrogen Economist and Hydrocarbon Processing discuss how Trump's incoming administration will shape global energy markets and the effects of future policy and regulations. Key topics include regulatory changes, adjustments in subsidies and taxes, and potential impacts on the oil, gas, and renewable energy sectors worldwide.

This episode of the Carbon Economist podcast focuses on the current landscape and advancements in Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) in Europe. Hosted by Paul Hickin, editor in chief at Carbon Economist, the episode features Caterina de Matteis, senior policy manager for IOGP Europe. Discussed topics include the challenges, advancements, and partnerships in CCS, cost and regulatory issues, commercial risks, and stakeholder co-operation. Emphasis is placed on the evolving policies supporting CCS initiatives, financial mechanisms, and the need for increased public awareness.

Join Rhys Timson on the Carbon Economist podcast as he engages with Seth Haskell, a research analyst at Global Energy Infrastructure, in a deep dive into carbon capture and storage (CCS) for industrial use. Discover the sectors leading in CCS implementation, their successes and the hurdles they face. Explore the feasibility of scaling CCS for hard-to-abate sectors like steel and cement, and examine the role of government support and economic factors in driving the CCS agenda.

Join Stuart Penson on the Carbon Economist Podcast as we explore the CCUS landscape on the U.S. Gulf Coast. Learn how major firms like TotalEnergies, ExxonMobil and Chevron are driving developments with strategic acquisitions and projects such as the Bayou Bend, Harvest Bend, and Coastal Bend.

In this episode of the Carbon Economist podcast, Stuart Penson delves into the evolving dynamics of the voluntary carbon credits market. Stuart examines the recent surge in demand, contrasting it with persistent allegations of greenwashing. Key developments include tightened industry standards and a notable rule change by the Science Based Targets Initiative, potentially allowing companies to count voluntary credits against Scope 3 emissions. Join us as we explore these pivotal shifts and their implications for the future of carbon offsetting.

The deployment of CCS and CCUS globally is accelerating as it now widely acknowledged as one of the key technologies for achieving net-zero and the limiting of global warming to 1.5 degrees. Crucial to the performance of all carbon capture systems as the industry scales up is CO2 compression. Carbon Economist is delighted to host this exclusive podcast with MAN Energy Solutions to explore its unique range of technologies in this key area. With its unrivalled expertise and skills, MAN Energy Solutions offers modularised compression solutions for every capture technology, based on years of experience in the compression of dry and wet CO2 and over a million hours of operation in CCUS applications. The modules are engineered to reduce delivery and installation times, with their integrally geared technology delivering optimum performance in terms of both Opex and Capex. 

In this episode, we dive deep into the transformative world of carbon capture and storage (CCS), a pivotal technology in the fight against climate change. Joining us are two esteemed guests from Schneider Electric: Rajesh Sharma, Global director of strategy for digital and energy transition solutions, and Ahmed Sfar, Director of business development. Together, they explore the intricacies of CCS, discussing its critical role in sustainability and decarbonisation, the impact of digitalisation and electrification, and the various types of carbon capture technologies reshaping industries. Whether you’re an industry professional, environmental advocate, or simply keen on the future of green technologies, this episode offers valuable insights into accelerating the transition towards a greener and more sustainable world.
