Recent developments in artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), cloud computing, and other technologies are leading to rapid implementation in various industries around the world. These developments have only been possible due to recent increases in computing power and availability of vast datasets needed to train AI programs. This along with improved algorithms for training […]
Key drivers for SCR systems for NOx removal
Traditional power plants produce a mix of toxic gases as they burn fuels such as coal and natural gas for power. These emissions include greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and acid rain-forming oxides of sulfur (SOx) and nitrogen (NOx). NOx can cause severe respiratory problems, stimulate algae growth in waterways decreasing water […]

2024 LNG Outlook: Growing stability yet uncertainty in the global LNG market
The ripples in the global LNG markets induced by geopolitical conflict seemed to have died down and greater import and export capacity coupled with continued growth in the share of renewable energy will result in a relatively stable yet uncertain LNG market in 2024. Key trends to look out for include the following: Global LNG […]
Haynesville shale’s growing competitiveness
The Haynesville shale has emerged as a major natural gas play in recent years. Natural gas production from the Haynesville shale reached a new record high of 14.5 Bcf/d in 2023, accounting for 14% of all U.S. dry natural gas production. Haynesville production growth has accounted for 40% of the U.S. gas production growth recently. […]
Cost optimization in the shale patch
Leading shale operators from oil majors such as ExxonMobil and Chevron to the E&P independents including ConocoPhillips, Pioneer, Oxy, and Diamondback have committed to growing production without compromising returns and sustainability. Achieving this aspiration will require significant cost optimization where recent ADI research and consulting is showing significant progress by E&P companies. These cost optimization […]
Sugar rush to candy crush: Struggling U.S. natural gas prices
Henry Hub gas prices averaged $6.45 per MMBtu in 2022 rising from $3.89 in 2021, driven by increased demand from Europe and the gradual re-opening of China. Prices have since fallen 62% to average $2.46 in 2023. The global LNG sugar rush resulted in LNG prices to rise to over $32 per MMBtu in 2022 […]
New growth opportunities in compressor markets
Compressors are used in a wide range of applications in the oil and gas, energy, and petrochemical industries. The growing hydrogen, carbon capture, biofuels, and other energy transition markets present new opportunities for compressor companies. Many of these industries are being built from the ground up, offering years of growth for compressors and related equipment […]
From Russia with love: Tracking Russia’s fossil fuel market
Ever since Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022, western countries have spent a lot of time cutting ties with Russia and enacting sanctions to financially pressure them, with a particular emphasis on their fossil fuel industry. With more than a year passing since the start of this war, in this blog, we take look […]
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 […]
