EROI of OilDate December 09, 2017Details Last century's oil was mobile liquid in porous source rock where it had concentrated after being thermally broken down from the biomass deposited more than 50 million years ago. This century's oil is being mined from tar deposits or blown out of solid shale. |

1st International GATE ConferenceDate September 08, 2017Details GATE 2018 Breaks new ground with global "no-travel" designGATE didn't want people to have to fly to the conference. Thus we organized an e-conference with venues in New Zealand and UK, and live webfeed to people around the world. We reduced the greenhouse gas emissions by more than 80% AND we all slept better. Other benefits included much higher attendance, and not having to go through airport security. Read Article on IMechE |
