This issue of Oil and Gas TechVision Opportunity Engine (TOE) features innovations which enhance automated inspection for oil and gas facilities, durability during drilling operations, and also focusses on the use of advanced drilling advisory systems for autonomous drilling. The TOE also provides intelligence on the artificial intelligence software used to enhance oil and gas production and also provides useful insights on analytical fingerprinting of petroleum and chemical mixtures. The TOE also features innovations based on the use of virtual laboratory for preventing oil pipeline leaks and the use of neutrons and gamma rays for corrosion detection in oil and gas facilities. The TOE additionally provides insights on seismic prediction at hydraulic fracking sites and the use of carbon dioxide as a substitute for water for hydraulic fracking purposes. Furthermore, the TOE provides intelligence on the use of evaporative disposal technology for treating oil and gas wastewater also about the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions in oil refineries by using a silica alumina-based catalyst.
The Oil and Gas TOE provides intelligence on innovations pertaining to technologies, products, and processes, along with strategic insights, in the upstream and downstream processes in the oil and gas industry.
The Energy and Utilities cluster provides global insights and intelligence on a wide variety of disruptive emerging technologies and platforms ranging from energy storage, advanced batteries, solar and wind energy, to unconventional oil, bioenergy, geothermal energy, and energy transmission.
