It is a misconception that abandoning fossil fuels reduces the importance of the subsurface – whilst the use of it will materially change, it continues to play a crucial role in every aspect of human life.

John Underhill, Professor of Geoscience & Energy Transition at Heriot-Watt University, highlights the importance of an integrated approach to energy transition.

Russia has ample oil and gas reserves to both supply energy to all its people and earn huge revenues from exporting fossil fuels, so what incentives are there for it to opt for a carbon-free future?

A regional update on the resource and political situation in the Caspian Sea.

Longboat Energy, the emerging full-cycle North Sea E&P company has announced a material discovery at the Egyptian Vulture exploration well in PL 939, encountering light oil in the primary target in the Lower Cretaceous Intra Lange Formation.

In September 2021, the Oil and Gas Authority (OGA) announced that a competition has been launched to help electrify and decarbonise offshore oil and gas production.

The UK has little to no gas storage capacity and is at risk of becoming overly reliant on renewable energy to keep the lights on this winter, according to John Underhill, a Professor of Geoscience and Energy Transition at Heriot-Watt University.
