Solution
Transition Technologies™: Decarbonizing with proven impact reductions
Emissions Reduction
Reduce operational emissions and environmental impact with quantifiably proven, reliable technologies.
Challenge
Reducing environmental footprint without compromising performance
Energy industry oil and gas sector stakeholders, investors, and global and local communities demand to see more tangible, immediate carbon footprint reductions. Choosing solutions that reduce your footprint demonstrably while driving high performance is a daunting process. Decision makers must differentiate what’s meaningful from what’s seen as "greenwash."
Whether you’re already decarbonizing or just getting started, we’re here to help.
Our portfolio of Transition Technologies provides measurable reductions in emissions and environmental impacts of oil and gas operations. Using a science-based methodology developed by our engineers, the impacts of these technologies prove to reduce footprint now. Our rigorous method categorizes each technology's environmental attributes and links them to universally recognized United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), demonstrating clear areas of long-term impact and investment.
Benefits
