Potential low-carbon (green or blue) hydrogen demand from the global refining sector could reach 50 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) by 2050, says Wood Mackenzie.
US President Joe Biden has a transformational goal: he wants the country to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, building on the net-zero power sector he wants in place by 2035. Can the US meet this challenge? According to new research released today by global natural resources consultancy Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq: VRSK), the US is likely to struggle to achieve Biden’s ambitions. Technological limitations, policy design, market structures and even the United States’ political and constitutional foundations may hamper progress.
We may only be halfway through 2021, but it is already shaping up to be a breakthrough year for carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) to emerge as a viable tool for upstream companies to decarbonise operations. Although the concept has been around for decades, CCS is moving into the mainstream. All the industry’s largest companies now plan to use sequestration to help them reach their decarbonisation targets.
For the second consecutive year, French major TotalEnergies has been named the upstream industry’s most-admired explorer, an accolade awarded as part of with Wood Mackenzie’s industry-leading annual Exploration Survey.

As the tight oil sector continues to mature, producers are looking for ways to optimise their operations, improving efficiency of both production and costs. It's a battle to win back investor confidence. New research from Wood Mackenzie underscores the fact tight-oil operators are no longer chasing growth at all costs. Development strategies have firmly shifted to focus on scale: drilling sections instead of wells, with compressed paybacks, at the lowest possible cost. Many are favouring a “cube” development strategy, viewing it as the most efficient way to capitalise on cost savings.
US independent Anadarko Petroleum today formally sanctioned its Mozambican liquefied natural gas (LNG) project, Mozambique LNG. Anadarko is developing Mozambique’s first onshore LNG facility, initially consisting of two LNG trains with a total nameplate capacity of 12.88 million tonnes per annum (mmtpa). Feedgas comes from the Golfinho/Atum field, in Offshore Area 1.
The Lower 48 E&P sector is under pressure from investors demanding greater capital discipline, positive free cash flow and increasing returns. There’s a tug-of-war between value and volume, and value has emerged as the winner. The Lower 48’s independents, who traditionally pursued growth at all costs, must now rein in their impulses and focus on delivering returns to their shareholders. How does this affect their 2019 spending plans, and how do they manage volatile oil prices?
Is the Global Energy Transition on track? A new report by Wood Mackenzie, Thinking global energy transitions: the what, if, how and when, explores the forces shaping the energy transition, and pinpoints the sustainability tipping point – when the world shifts from the age of oil and gas to the age of power and renewables – will arrive by 2035.

Five key lessons from today's energy crisis on how to manage the shift to lower-carbon sources while strengthening energy security
High commodity prices and Russia's invasion of Ukraine have called into question the UK’s reliance on energy imports. In response, the UK government is set to unveil a new ‘energy security strategy’.
The world has the means, motive and opportunity to cap global warming to the 1.5°C limit agreed in the Paris Climate Accord, new research released today by Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk company (Nasdaq: VRSK) shows. But there will be tangible economic implications of an accelerated energy transition. While global economic output is likely to take a hit until 2050, it could be recoverable by the end of the century, according to Wood Mackenzie.
