As U.S. shale plays mature, oil and gas operators face an intensification of a longstanding challenge: managing water efficiently. Given that produced water represents the largest by-product or waste stream associated with oil and gas production, coupled with the potentially costly treatment methods and environmental impacts, effectively handling produced water becomes a challenging task. The […]
LNG export permit pause: Market implications
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 […]
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 […]
Refineries improving margins through better utilization of off-gas streams
Hydrocarbon-rich off-gas streams from distillation, conversion, cracking, and other processes are collected to heat various processes throughout refineries and petrochemical plants. Examples of these off-gas streams include still gas, the top product from a refinery’s distillation column, and steam cracker tail gas, which is composed mostly of methane and hydrogen. Aggregation of these off-gas streams […]

2024 Midstream Outlook: Business as usual
The midstream industry had a favorable year in 2023, witnessing higher investment, M&A, and notable progress in infrastructure development. Looking forward to 2024, we expect a mixed but business as usual outlook for the midstream industry. Key trends to keep an eye on are the following: The Permian takeaway capacity outlook remains a difficult balancing […]
2024 Energy Transition and Climate Tech Outlook: Measured, Steady Growth
While the broader sentiment around energy transition turned more pessimistic in 2023, investments in clean energy and related technologies still increased by more than 20%. This included renewables, biofuels, and a wide range of low-carbon solutions. Despite this growth, we anticipate a more measured pace of progress in 2024, as reflected in the following themes: Publicly Traded Cleantech Companies: Public cleantech companies took […]
2024 Chemicals Outlook: Flat expectations
The global chemical industry struggled in 2023. The year was marked by rising inflation rates and low demand from major markets. With China still in recovery, the growth the industry was hoping for never came to fruition. In 2024 we expect things to stay the course and see no drastic changes up or down in […]
2024 Upstream outlook: Opportunities, growth, and industry trends
In 2024, the upstream oil and gas industry is expected to experience notable changes influenced by developments in 2023. From the ongoing wave of consolidation and the maturation of the U.S. shale sector to pivotal shifts in Latin America, Africa, and Asia, the industry is adapting to new dynamics. Technological advancements, particularly in digitalization and […]
2024 Refining and fuels outlook: A cautious outlook for 2024
The global refining industry had an unexpectedly strong year in 2023 with strong demand recovery especially in diesel and jet fuel and high crack spreads not seen in many years leaving many refiners with strong balance sheets and optimism about the future. Against this context, we anticipate a far more mixed outlook for the refining […]
