NETL's green projects promise energy efficiency all year round Forty years after the first Earth Day, it is almost second nature to toss a can or plastic bottle into the recycling bin, but being green is about much more than reusing materials. Just as individuals make a personal decision to "reduce, reuse, and recycle," businesses, industry, and other organizations are making the same commitment to being green. Contact: Shelley Martin

Innovative coal-based product bumps petroleum out of equation A team headed by West Virginia University has developed and successfully demonstrated a synthetic binder pitch that uses hydrocarbons from coal to supplement or replace petroleum feedstocks. Contact: Mike Jacobs
25-May-2007
DOE releases 2007 Carbon Sequestration Technology Roadmap The 2007 Carbon Sequestration Technology Roadmap and Program Plan was released today by the US Department of Energy's Carbon Sequestration Program. Contact: Mike Jacobs
9-Nov-2006
Department of Energy advances commercialization of climate change technology U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Assistant Secretary Jeffrey D. Jarrett has announced the Department's support of seven tests in North America to advance carbon sequestration technologies while attending the Asia-Pacific Partnership on Clean Development and Climate. Contact: Mike Jacobs

Pipe locating sensor could help prevent natural gas leaks A new flat plate sensor being developed by DOE and the Gas Technology Institute could pinpoint underground natural gas pipes before they can be accidentally damaged by "third party" construction crews. Contact: Joe Culver
19-Mar-2002
Sonic waves help recover natural gas from clogged storage sites A new device that cleans scale from a well bore using high-intensity sound waves has shown significant promise in its first field trials. Researchers are now readying the device for more tests that could lead to the technology's commercial introduction. Contact: Joe Culver
18-Mar-2002
DOE kicks off 'deep trek' to develop deeper, smarter drilling technology Initiative Will Develop "Smart" Drilling System for Deep Gas To meet the Nation's growing demand for natural gas, drillers will likely have to probe deeper into more hostile formations to find new gas supplies. To develop a new high-tech "smart" drilling system that can tap into deep reservoirs, the Department of Energy is beginning "Deep Trek." A solicitation is now available to developers who are interested in proposing "Deep Trek" drilling and completion concepts. Contact: Joe Culver
12-Mar-2002
New projects to study ways to recover vast quantities of 'left behind' oil To produce hard-to-get oil once it is located, the Department also plans to award three new contracts to improve the effectiveness of oil production technologies. Contact: Joe Culver
12-Mar-2002
New projects to help operators 'see' oil, gas formations more clearly To develop better ways for producers to "see" promising oil-bearing formations, DOE has selected six new projects to develop advanced diagnostics and imaging technologies. Contact: Joe Culver
6-Mar-2002
New projects to explore 'breakthrough' ideas for capturing, storing carbon gases As part of its efforts to develop "breakthrough" approaches for reducing the threat of global climate change, the Department has added three new projects to develop ways to capture carbon dioxide released from power plants and safely prevent it from entering the atmosphere. Contact: Joe Culver
27-Feb-2002
New project to develop Web tool for analyzing air quality in Ohio River Valley A new project in DOE's Fossil Energy program will compile massive amounts of air quality data collected over three years from half a dozen sampling stations and make the information available to researchers and regulators over the Internet. The web tool will be especially useful in future State actions to regulate microscopic PM2.5 particles. Contact: Joe Culver

Providing technical aid to small producers in America's oil fields Fracturing, New Computer Imaging Focus of Recent DOE Selections More than half of America's oil production from the lower 48 States is supplied by small independent producers. As these companies become increasingly important to America's energy security, the Energy Department continues to provide grants for the smallest of these producers to test better technologies that can keep their wells pumping.
