Explorer President’s Column By Denise Cox

Energy Transitions and Conference Transitions

“When you think about the future of energy in the year 2025, seven years from now, I see ______?” This was one of the digital interactive questions asked at the Energy Transitions Forum in Amsterdam last month. The answers from a room of energy professionals were telling: diversity, renewables, energy, change, hybrid, oil, gas. The Forum addressed how companies and geoscientists can broaden their roles for energy transitions that can include a lower-carbon future.

From Antarctica to the World

Antarctica is not known for its hospitable environment or its warmth. But for Paola Tello Guerrero, an oil and gas physicist-turned-environmental activist, Antarctica represents connection, passion and inspiration. The icy continent lit an inner fire that she is taking around the world.

The Natural H₂ Exploration Started: Why, Where and by Who?

Why H₂ is generated in subsurface? Which are the reactions and the promising geological setting? Example in countries where H₂ have already been found: Australia, Brazil. Kinetic reactions: i.e., Is the natural H₂ renewable? What we don't know yet about this resource and about the H₂ systems (generation/transport/accumulation). Overview of the current landscape (subsurface law, permitting, E&P activity)
