The Biden Administration’s recent pause on permits for LNG exports to non-FTA countries has sparked industry-wide debate. While motivated by climate concerns, the pause could delay the retirement of coal-fired plants in emerging economies, paradoxically slowing greenhouse gas (GHG) reductions. The U.S. has successfully cut its CO2 emissions by 18% since 2005, largely by switching […]
Can turquoise hydrogen deliver?
Traditionally, hydrogen has been produced predominantly via steam methane reforming (SMR), a process in which methane in natural gas reacts with steam at high temperature, producing hydrogen, and carbon dioxide (CO2) as byproduct. Hydrogen produced via this method is commonly referred to as grey hydrogen. Although this method is cost-effective, it contributes significantly to greenhouse […]
Bridging the gap: Integrating renewable energy with the grid
The critical need for robust investment in power grid infrastructure has been underscored by recent electricity disruptions experienced in Spain and Portugal. In April 2025, a combination of extreme weather events and constraints on the existing transmission network led to widespread outages, impacting homes, businesses, and essential services across the Iberian Peninsula. Such incidents serve […]
Capitalizing on the global natural gas and LNG supercycle
Natural gas and liquefied natural gas (LNG), once touted as a bridge fuel to a low-carbon renewable energy-powered future, are now increasingly seen as a permanently central part of the evolving global energy landscape. Factors such as explosive growth in AI and data centers in the U.S. and elsewhere, energy security concerns in Europe and […]
The flight forward: How 45Z guidance is reshaping the future of U.S. SAF
The U.S. SAF industry has faced significant uncertainty recently, with questions surrounding how government support, feedstock eligibility, and financial incentives might evolve during President Trump’s second administration. Our recent blog, “The Future of SAF Under Trump: Will Biofuels Thrive or Stall?” highlighted these concerns and emphasized the potential impacts on SAF investments and production strategies. […]
Big tech’s energy crisis is bringing nuclear back
As the global push for low-carbon energy intensifies, demand for nuclear power is gaining momentum in the United States. At the heart of this resurgence is the rapidly expanding energy appetite of data centers, particularly those supporting artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud computing. The immense power needs of these facilities are prompting a shift toward […]
Keeping it below the line – Part 1: Midstream operators tackle methane emission intensity
Methane, the primary component of natural gas, is a potent greenhouse gas that has significantly higher global warming potential than carbon dioxide over a 20-year period. The oil and gas midstream sector, responsible for gathering, processing, and transporting natural gas, is a key source of methane emissions and is therefore under pressure to reduce methane […]
From Russia with love: Future prospects of the Russian refining market
Russia has historically been a major player in the global oil market, not only as a leading crude oil exporter but also as a significant supplier of refined oil products. For years, it has been a key source of diesel, fuel oil, and other refined oil products for Europe, Asia-Pacific (APAC) including China, and CIS […]
