Oil & Gas Industry

Electrification in the oil and gas industry faces challenges like high costs for infrastructure upgrades, limited access to renewable energy sources in remote locations, and technological barriers for integrating electrical systems with existing operations. Additionally, regulatory uncertainties and the need for skilled labor further complicate the transition to low-carbon energy systems.

Sustainability is essential for companies, especially as oil and gas operations contribute 15% of global energy emissions. Reducing this industry’s carbon footprint is challenging but achievable through electrification.

Electrify HUB’s Mobile Charging Units (MCUs) offer adaptable, durable solutions that support emission reduction by using efficient, mobile technology tailored for lower-carbon feedstocks, enabling companies to cut emissions effectively.

Electric Drilling Equipment

Drilling and refining heavily contribute to carbon emissions due to reliance on fossil fuel-powered and pneumatic equipment. These outdated systems, including methane-releasing pneumatic pumps, are ideal for electrification, potentially cutting emissions by 40%. Off-grid drilling sites often lack access to reliable electricity but Electrify HUB’s MCUs offer a solution.

Transport and Supply Chain

Oil and gas companies face challenges reducing supply chain emissions, particularly due to transportation, which accounts for 28% of U.S. greenhouse gases. Light-duty and heavy-duty EVs present viable electrification options, but limited charging infrastructure near remote sites complicates this. Electrify HUB’s MCUs offer off-grid charging solutions for these vehicles.

Renewables or Low Carbon

Many oil and gas operations rely on fossil fuel-generated electricity, limiting emissions reduction. However, companies are shifting toward renewable energy, like offshore wind and solar power for onshore wells, to enable zero-carbon electrification. Transitioning is costly and gradual, with natural gas and LPG used as lower-carbon interim solutions.

Solutions

Natural Gas (NG) and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) are often viewed as cleaner fuel alternatives compared to gasoline and diesel as fuel sources where they emit substantially less carbon dioxide.

Natural Gas (NG) and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) are often viewed as cleaner fuel alternatives compared to gasoline and diesel as fuel sources where they emit substantially less carbon dioxide.

Here’s a brief overview of each fuel type:

NG (Natural Gas)

This fuel type is mainly comprised of methane and burns with lower emissions than traditional fuels like gasoline and diesel.  

LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas)

A combination of propane and butane, LPG tends to produce slightly less methane than NG, making it a somewhat cleaner choice.  

Electrify HUB’s MCUs can provide a reliable and sufficient power output to implement immediate electrification of its operations for the oil and gas industry by utilizing NG and LPG as base fuel types for power generation.
