Internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles have been commercially available since the late 1800s when Carl Benz patented the now historic Benz Patent Motor Car, model no. 1, and for over 100 years they have been integral to transportation around the world. But now with the world advancing with energy transition, we are seeing steps towards […]
Energy security over energy transition
From the start of the Russia-Ukraine war, we have seen global interest fragment across both energy transition and energy security. With several countries being overly reliant on Russian oil and gas, we saw a return to energy sources that the world had been weaning off. For example, Exhibit 1 shows how coal, oil, and nuclear […]
NGL frac: Is it worth the worry?
For roughly two years, NGL fractionation capacity utilization rates have been over 90%. Roughly 820,000 barrels per day (bpd) of new fractionation capacity is coming online in the next two years. Will this amount be enough to relieve the constraints in the Mont Belvieu-Texas Gulf Coast? What other options are available? This blog will cover […]
The European IRA
President Joe Biden kicked off the decarbonization race by signing two monumental pieces of legislation: the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), which designated $370 billion in new funding for green infrastructure. In response, the European Commission recently announced the Green Deal Industrial Plan (GDIP). The plan will divert […]
What’s new with hydrogen in transportation?
The transportation sector has the highest reliance on fossil fuels and accounted for 37% of CO2 emissions from end-use sectors in 2021. Various industries of the transportation sector have started researching hydrogen as an alternative fuel source, and in this blog, ADI will look at the technological progress that has been made and some of […]
Hot spots in oil and gas exploration
Oil and gas prices were relatively high in 2022, although they have come down significantly from their highs reached last summer. Despite the drop, oil prices have remained higher than what we have seen for the last seven years, and natural gas was at level not seen in over a decade. Even with these prices, […]
Water and batteries supporting the grid
One of the biggest challenges to renewable energy projects is the intermittency of these resources; the sun doesn’t always shine, and the wind doesn’t always blow. These challenges have been made apparent around the world from wind droughts in Europe to winter storms in Texas. One solution to this challenge is expanding grid-scale energy storage […]
Renewables versus fossil fuels: Who is winning the funding battle?
Following the pandemic-induced recession and drop in investments in 2020, global investments in energy have increased. Investments in both fossil fuels and renewables have steadily increased, with renewable energy gaining the most. In fact, investments in renewable energy (solar and wind) are set to surpass oil and gas for the first time ever, with $494 […]
2023 Chemicals Outlook: Challenges galore
After a tumultuous recovery in 2021, the global chemical industry was expecting a strong rebound in 2022. Feedstock supply constraints, high energy prices, and slowing economic conditions, however, dampened the industry’s performance in 2022. A number of these challenges will persist and likely intensify in 2023 and continue to challenge the industry. Key trends with […]
2023 Midstream Outlook: Reaching new limits
The oil & gas midstream industry faced multiple challenges in 2022: an increase in demand for American LNG from Europe, growing emissions and ESG pressures, volatile margins and markets, and rising gas and oil production. In 2023, we expect similar challenges and dynamics that will test midstream markets again. Some of these challenges and dynamics […]
