Innovations in Enhanced Oil Recovery, Oil Spill Remediation Techniques, Emissions Detection, and Salinity Management of Produced Water

This edition of the Oil and Gas (O&G) TOE features information about the use of machine learning to accurately detect fugitive gas emissions in upstream oil & gas sites. The TOE covers innovations in the Microbial-enhanced Oil Recovery (MEOR) methods, leading to increased oil productivity. The TOE highlights advancements in wastewater treatment methodologies at upstream sites. The TOE provides the latest innovations in minimal liquid discharge technologies for salinity management of water. Finally, the focal point of the TOE will also cover the novel method for lithium extraction from produced water using manganese-based ion sieves.



The Oil and Gas TOE provides intelligence on innovations pertaining to technologies, products, and processes, along with strategic insights, in the upstream and downstream processes in the oil and gas industry.



The Energy and Utilities cluster provides global insights and intelligence on a wide variety of disruptive emerging technologies and platforms ranging from energy storage, advanced batteries, solar and wind energy, to unconventional oil, bioenergy, geothermal energy, and energy transmission.



Keywords: produced water, oil spill, oil spill remediation, lithium extraction, enhanced oil recovery, salinity management, wastewater treatment, green ammonia, methane emissions, methane leak.
