Simulation and Economic Analysis of Helium Extraction Process from Natural Gas

The investment estimation of the helium extraction project from natural gas is a crucial step in economically obtaining helium from both domestic and international projects. This article employs Aspen HYSYS to simulate the process and estimate the investment levels of Linde and Exxon Mobil integrated helium extraction processes. We investigate the influence of feed composition and processing capacity on investment costs and product returns. The results indicate that higher helium content of feed correlates with increased equipment investment costs and total capital cost (CAPEX), and that the Linde integrated process is significantly more sensitive to changes in helium content of feed than the Exxon Mobil integrated process. As the helium content of feed rises, the product returns of the two processes are evidently improved, leading to reduced investment payback periods. Both techniques exhibit favorable payback periods when the feed helium content exceeds 0.5 vol%. Nevertheless, elevated nitrogen content in the feed notably escalates the equipment investment costs and total capital costs. Furthermore, an increase in the processing capacity of feed gas leads to a nonlinear increase in total capital costs and annual operating costs. However, the cost per unit of helium extraction diminishes with increasing capacity. In general, the Linde integrated process requires higher separation energy consumption in comparison with the Exxon Mobil integrated process at similar processing capacities. Moreover, the sensitivity analysis shows that helium breakeven price is strongly affected by the price of both LNG and feed gas.

Financial stability strategies for oil companies amidst high volatility in the global oil products market

The increasing instability within the global oil sector poses a challenge for contemporary companies to devise and implement effective financial stability strategies. The aim of this study is to analyse the financial stability strategies employed by oil companies, explore alternative approaches amidst the global volatility of the oil market, and develop a methodological framework for evaluating financial strategies, utilising an alternative options matrix. The author's methodological approach is proposed: a matrix of the company's alternative financial strategies is created. In this study, data from the top 10 largest oil companies in the world for the years 2015–2019 were utilised. Exxon Mobil and CNPC exhibit the lowest level of financial stability. A sustainable growth strategy is necessary for Aramco, Rosneft, and ADNOK. Kazmunaigas should adopt a strategy focused on ensuring financial stability in the event of adverse external conditions. For Exxon Mobil, maintaining financial stability is a relevant strategy. CNPC should consider implementing a financial stabilisation strategy contingent upon favourable market dynamics. The practical significance of the research results lies in providing specific conclusions and recommendations regarding optimal financial stability strategies for oil companies and stakeholders amidst global market volatility conditions. The analysis of the alternative financial strategies matrix may serve as a foundation for managerial decision-making aimed at ensuring company resilience in fluctuating economic environments and enhancing their competitiveness.

Volatility spillovers among leading cryptocurrencies and US energy and technology companies

This study investigates volatility spillovers and network connectedness among four cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tether, and BNB coin), four energy companies (Exxon Mobil, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, and Nextera Energy), and four mega-technology companies (Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, and Amazon) in the US. We analyze data for the period November 15, 2017–October 28, 2022 using methodologies in Diebold and Yilmaz (Int J Forecast 28(1):57–66, 2012) and Baruník and Křehlík (J Financ Economet 16(2):271–296 2018). Our analysis shows the COVID-19 pandemic amplified volatility spillovers, thereby intensifying the impact of financial contagion between markets. This finding indicates the impact of the pandemic on the US economy heightened risk transmission across markets. Moreover, we show that Bitcoin, Ethereum, Chevron, ConocoPhilips, Apple, and Microsoft are net volatility transmitters, while Tether, BNB, Exxon Mobil, Nextera Energy, Alphabet, and Amazon are net receivers Our results suggest that short-term volatility spillovers outweigh medium- and long-term spillovers, and that investors should be more concerned about short-term repercussions because they do not have enough time to act quickly to protect themselves from market risks when the US market is affected. Furthermore, in contrast to short-term dynamics, longer term patterns display superior hedging efficiency. The net-pairwise directional spillovers show that Alphabet and Amazon are the highest shock transmitters to other companies. The findings in this study have implications for both investors and policymakers.

The impact of climate litigation and activism on stock prices: the case of oil and gas majors

The issue of oil and gas companies’ contribution to climate change gained particular prominence on May 26, 2021. A Dutch court ordered Royal Dutch Shell to significantly reduce its greenhouse gas emissions, while shareholder votes at Exxon Mobile and Chevron succeeded in pushing for further emissions reductions. Together, these events signify a sudden increase in climate litigation and climate activism risk for global oil and gas companies. This study assesses investors' perception of these events by investigating oil and gas companies’ stock price reaction. The results show a significant negative impact on the stock prices for European and North American oil and gas firms, while firms located in other jurisdictions record slight gains. Higher environmental, social, and governance scores appear to mitigate the negative impact on European and North American oil and gas companies, primarily driven through better emissions related measures. The results highlight the adverse effect of increased climate litigation and climate activism risk on firm valuations.

Analysis of Soil Deformation Due to Oil and Gas Exploration and Hydrocarbons Micro Seepage in Ngasem District, Bojonegoro Regency

Land subsidence is the result of the extraction of liquid in the pores of the rock from the compression of the sediment. The decrease occurred due to the exploitation of oil and gas wells in the area which took and caused reduced sediment compression. Aside from the result of excessive extraction of hydrocarbons, hydrocarbon micro seepage can also trigger an anomaly in the ground level. This anomaly is due to the abundance of hydrocarbons in the reservoir and the dynamic nature of oil and gas accumulation, which results in the absence of a perfect rock seal. This study aims to determine the average rate of subsidence in Ngasem District and to analyze the relationship between soil deformation and oil and gas exploration activities and hydrocarbon micro seepage. The method used in this research is InSAR Time Series with LiCSAR Sentinel 1 SLC and Generic data. Atmospheric Correction Online Service (GACOS) which was used from 2014 to. Meanwhile, maps of the distribution of hydrobarone micro seeps were obtained from Exxon Mobil and Exploration Wells for the East Java Basin were obtained from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources. The results showed that the deformation of the land surface in the Ngasem sub-district was very diverse due to the presence of geological structures, exploration wells and potential seepage of micro-hydrocarbons. From the results of deformation processing in the Ngasem District area, it has the highest rising speed in the study area at 77mm/year while for the greatest decrease at -85 mm/year. Exxon Mobill’s exploration wells experienced a subsidence of -30mm/year, while the potential for micro-hydrocarbon seepage increased by 60mm/year. From the results of the analysis of the decline that occurred in exploration wells due to oil and gas exploitation.
