Phoenix Operating Update! We’re kicking off the first week of July with an exciting 21-well completions program, starting at the Nate 27 pad. We’ll be working through four pads in total—Nate 27, Daniele 26, Axel Ferrari 25, and Jacobson 19—featuring 21 3-mile lateral wells. Over the next several months, we’ll be frac’ing them in sequence and prepping them for production. Stay tuned for more updates! #OilandGas #PhoenixCapitalGroup #PhoenixOperating #ONEPhoenix #domesticenergy #naturalgas

Yup, that’s an 1 1/4 gas main left like this for the past few years 😳 Wouldn’t have taken much to just cap it off. Needless to say, we made the installation safe. #commercialproperty #thurrock #shoplocalbusiness #commercialboiler #commercialgas #Thurrock #thurrockbusiness #commercialheating #CommercialBoiler #gasengineer

Other than the things I had to say, we learnt quite a few interesting facts during this workshop. For example, changing the wall thickness of monopiles by a mere 1 mm may change the cost of a typical OWF development by in the order of $5.5M dollars! But I also learnt that at the early stage of a project - where many of the crucial decisions are made - money can be very tight indeed, leading to a profound tendency by developers to select the 'cheapest' consultant offering advice. Just think about that for a moment - the decisions that will ultimately involve spending a huge amount of money are generally made in the cheapest way possible. Almost 30 years of geotechnical & foundation detailed design experience in Australia tells me this will likely lead to some very bad outcomes 'down under'. The devil is always in the detail - its an old idiom but never truer than in Australian carbonate soils - ignore it at your great peril! If you are a developer thinking of working in Australia I have just one message - don't scrimp in this early decision phase - to do so will almost certainly cost you very dearly down the line.......

Hello everyone, this is a video about my Final Project “Water Turbine Performance Testing for Picohydro Power Plants (PLTPH)”

📢 THIS JUST IN: This new #gas condensate discovery in the #NorthSea was made with one of Transocean’s #semisubmersible #rigs. Partners will now evaluate the possibility of fast-tracking the development of this discovery by utilizing existing infrastructure in the area. #offshoredrilling #naturalgas #oilgas #energy #oilandgasnews #drilling #oilandgas #offshoreenergy #Norway Wintershall Dea DNO ASA DNO Norge AS Petoro

Let CRC Distribution help you solve your offshore bearing issues!!

Transocean has inked a deal to sell one of its ultra-deepwater #floaters to an undisclosed buyer for $53.5 million. The divestment of this #semisubmersible #rig is part of the #offshoredrilling player's plans to focus on core #fleet assets. #rigs #oilgas #energy #oilandgasnews #offshoreenergy #oilandgas

Construction of Aurora Spirit The process of directly constructing a ship on a floating dock. The ship is a type of oil shuttle tanker. It is used to store and transport oil from the oil fields to refineries because it avoids the need for pipeline construction.

Be safe grilling this July 4th weekend!! Here’s some tips on safe grilling from Bill Moore.

Did you know the first-ever gas station in the world was built in 1905 by Standard Oil Company of California (now #Chevron) in St. Louis, Missouri? It was a simple place where cars could stop to fill up with gas. But it was the start of something big. It made life easier for people who had cars. They could drive longer without worrying about running out of gas. Now, we have gas stations everywhere, and they have more than just gas. They have snacks, drinks, and sometimes even a place to fix your car. That one little gas station started it all, and now we can’t imagine our roads without them. #cstore #didyouknow #gasstation #funfact #allaboutthegaspodcast
