Let’s Talk Energy Podcast

In Episode 7, I explore carbon capture, utilization, and storage or CCUS. It’s a term that’s been showing up in more and more climate conversations, but what does it actually mean? How does it work? And is it really a solution or just a distraction? This episode covers the basics of CCUS, how the technology works, and why it's gaining traction now. I also look at the case for and against it.

If you listened to Episode 4, I explored the scientific reasons behind how oil and gas contribute to climate change. We talked about carbon emissions, methane leaks, aging infrastructure, and health and environmental impacts. That episode laid out all of the challenges.

In Episode 6, I share a roadmap for the four-part mini series of the solutions that address these challenges. Tune into this short episode to learn more!

In Episode 5 I am taking you straight to the exhibition floor at the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) 2025 in Houston, where I captured conversations with engineers and energy leaders about the future of offshore energy.

OTC 2025 highlighted big themes like robotics and automation, electrification of offshore operations, carbon capture and storage, and how oil & gas expertise is being adapted for emerging energy technologies.

In Episode 4 which is Part 1 of a two-part series, I cover the key ways oil and gas contribute to climate change. Drawing from both global case studies and my own experience working with oil and gas infrastructure data, this episode explores the challenges we face when health, safety, and environmental systems fall short. In Part 2, we’ll shift our focus to the technologies and engineering solutions that are already making a difference.

In this episode, I talk about oil and gas pricing. I discuss common pricing benchmarks like Brent, WTI, and Henry Hub. Then I explore various factors that impact prices like supply and demand, market sentiment, geopolitical events, and the cost of production. If you’ve ever wondered why oil and gas prices fluctuate all the time and want to understand why, this episode is for you.

In the second episode of the Let’s Talk Energy Podcast, I cover the history of oil and gas, from their formation millions of years ago to their early use in ancient civilizations. Highlights include Edwin Drake’s first commercial oil well in 1859, the rise and breakup of Standard Oil, and major discoveries in Texas and the Middle East. I also discuss how technological advances, like LNG, expanded natural gas from local use to a global energy source, and how the industry is working to address environmental challenges.

Join me on the first episode of the Let’s Talk Energy Podcast, where I break down where our energy comes from, how different countries are navigating the energy transition, and what’s driving global demand.

I discuss why fossil fuels still dominate, the challenges renewables face in scaling up, and how technology, infrastructure, and economic growth are reshaping energy use. I also look at the ongoing challenge of balancing energy security, sustainability, and economic needs.
