Failure Mechanisms of the Wellbore Mechanical Barrier Systems: Implications for Well Integrity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Energy sustainability is the main motive behind the evolution of the concept of well integrity in the oil and gas industry. The concept of well integrity adopts technical, operational, environmental, organizational, and ...
The Blue Hydrogen Economy: A Promising Option for the Near-to-Mid-Term Energy Transition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Hydrogen is recently being promoted immensely as the primary energy carrier to replace fossil fuels for the envisioned environmentally friendly and sustainable future energy system, given its peculiar properties and ...
A Review on Well Integrity Issues for Underground Hydrogen Storage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Renewable energy production is limited by the fluctuations limiting their application. Underground hydrogen storage (UHS) is one possible alternative to reduce the gap between supply and demand by storing the energy converted ...
