Insights Article Piloting the world’s first wells using 100% low-carbon power
What does sustainably powered drilling look like today and where is it heading? The answer lies in emissions-free hydrogen fuel cells.
Build upstream oil and gas infrastructure with a lower carbon footprint
Minimizing emissions and achieving low-carbon oil and gas production are no longer just goals—they’re critical performance metrics. Building infrastructure with the smallest carbon footprint requires actionable solutions. These include enhancing operational efficiency, using low-carbon materials, optimizing physical footprints, and minimizing waste. The real challenge? Selecting proven solutions that lower environmental impact without compromising performance.
By understanding your performance goals, we can tackle these challenges together.
The less fuel the rig uses, the less emissions it produces. These technologies are proved to accelerate your well construction by improving drilling efficiency and optimizing rig power generation.
Fluids and other materials used in well construction can account for more than 30% of a well's total carbon footprint, including Scope 3 CO2e emissions. Low-emission product design and manufacturing can reduce environmental impact, and we have the technologies to help you do so.
Waste handling, transport, and treatment can add significantly to your well's carbon footprint. Minimizing waste generation means less transport and less emissions when these processes are minimized or eliminated.
Minimizing environmental impact doesn’t stop at drilling. We have a range of industry-leading stimulation technologies and completions techniques that can help reduce emissions while maximizing reservoir contact with a smaller environmental footprint.
To help you achieve systematic impacts, our end-to-end approach to drilling emissions management focuses on planning, monitoring, and innovation. Our experienced teams can design a rig- and operation-specific emissions monitoring and reduction approach using cost-effective solutions. By gaining control over your drilling emissions, you can make significant progress toward your sustainability goals.
