NETL was pleased to join President Donald J. Trump, Secretary Chris Wright, business leaders and top energy & AI innovators for the Senator Dave McCormick inaugural Pennsylvania Energy & Innovation Summit at Carnegie Mellon University. NETL shared how its digital engineering expertise is accelerating energy innovation.

NETL had a productive visit by the 2025 Oppenheimer Science and Energy Leadership Program (OSELP) cohort at our Pittsburgh and Morgantown sites! OSELP fellows met with NETL leadership and got a first-hand look at our innovation capabilities during lab tours with researchers.

Because of growing interest in offshore saline reservoirs in the Gulf of America for geologic carbon storage, NETL developed a cost modeling tool that enables users to secure an accurate technoeconomic analysis of GCS possibilities in offshore areas. netl.doe.gov/node/14918

NETL is leading efforts to reduce mineral scaling in hydraulic fracturing operations, which can damage wellbore integrity, obstruct the flow of gas and oil from unconventional reservoirs and impede the expansion of U.S. energy production. netl.doe.gov/node/14923

NETL’s Ruishu Wright has been selected as an honoree for a prestigious 2025 Samuel J. Heyman Service to America Medal in the Emerging Leader category for her groundbreaking work developing novel sensor technologies. Read more: netl.doe.gov/node/14926

NETL researchers demonstrated that signals in underground fluids can serve as indicators of flow patterns between existing oil & gas wellbores — a discovery that helps decision makers understand interactions between wells to optimize oil & gas production. netl.doe.gov/node/14941

Check out NETL’s newest video on the Multiphase Flow with Interphase eXchanges software suite —the world’s leading open-source tool for reducing risk, cost and development time during the design and analysis of advanced energy systems. youtu.be/08Dgpe5mxmY

A research and development project managed by #NETL with the University of Utah and industry partner Zephyr Energy plc has unlocked the potential to produce significant volumes of natural gas and oil in eastern Utah’s Paradox Basin: netl.doe.gov/node/14947
