Offshore Economics: the Impact of Technology
This data-file quantifies the impact that technology can have on offshore economics. We start with a 250-line field model, for a typical offshore oil and gas project. We then list…
Fast-charge the electric vehicles with gas?
When electric vehicles are widespread, how will we fuel them? Our model shows the economics can be compelling for powering fast-chargers using gas turbines. $289.00 – Purchase Checkout Added to cart The…
Aerial Vehicles Re-Shape Transportation Costs?
This model calculates the costs per passenger-kilometer for transportation, based on mileage, load factors, fuel prices (oil and electricity), fuel-economy, vehicle costs and maintenance costs. Ground level vehicles are assessed…
Hydrogen Cars: how economic?
…The model breaks out full-cycle costs as a function of: oil prices, oil taxes, power prices, renewable prices, hydrolysis costs, carbon costs, vehicle costs and capital costs. Download the model…
Shipping in batteries: the economics?
What if it were possible to displace diesel from high-cost, high-carbon “island” electricity grids, by charging up large batteries with gas- and renewable power, then shipping the batteries? This model…
Carbon Capture Costs at Refineries?
This model calculates the costs of post-combustion carbon capture at a world-scale refinery, using today’s commercially available CCS technologies. The aim is to see whether the process could be economically…
Power from Shore: the economics?
We model the economics of powering an oil platform from shore, using cheap renewable power instead of traditional gas turbines. This can lower upstream CO2 emissions by 5-15kg/bbl, or on…
Carbon Offsets vs Renewable Diesel?
This short model compares different options for decarbonising diesel, either by substituting it with renewable diesel, or by offsetting its CO2 with carbon credits from reforestation. We conclude that offsetting…
Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells: CCS plus Power? The Economics?
…model competitive economics can be achieved, under our base case assumptions, making it possible to retrofit units next to carbon-intensive industrial facilities, while also helping to power them. Our full…
Solar power: the economics?
…electricity are calculated in this model, as the electricity price that needs to be achieved, per kWh of sold output, in order to achieve a satisfactory return (IRR) on up-front…
