Abstract:
Oil and gas companies are investing in cleaner extraction methods like carbon
capture and storage (CCS) to reduce emissions. Initiatives to minimize methane
leaks, improve water management, and reduce flaring demonstrate the industry's
commitment to sustainability.
Diversification efforts into renewable energy sources such as solar and wind are
gaining momentum. These investments provide new revenue streams and enhance
energy security.
In conclusion, the energy transition presents challenges and opportunities for the oil
and gas industry. By embracing sustainability, diversification, and innovation,
companies can position themselves as leaders in a changing energy landscape.
