Solar energy in oil and gas industry
Aera Energy, one of California’s largest oil and gas producers, and GlassPoint Solar, the leading supplier of solar energy for the oil and gas industry, have broken ground on California’s largest solar energy project. Located at the Belridge oilfield west of Bakersfield, the integrated solar pro Scaling up solar and wind power to match the scale of today’s oil and gas industry is a huge undertaking. However desirable and achievable it may be, argue energy experts Wim Sinke and Wim Thomas, it won’t be quick or easy. Originally, solar energy was seen as a competing form of energy source as a threat that may replace or decrease the share of fossil fuels as an alternative energy resource in the world. However, oil and gas industry has adapted to the wind of change and has started investing and utilizing the solar energy significantly. In this perspective Big solar projects in emerging markets like Saudi Arabia, where oil and gas companies already have working experience, could also be easier points of entry. But to see real success in the clean While solar power is growing rapidly, we still use about 100 times as much energy in the form of oil (and about 90 times as much in the form of coal). Further, even though solar power is growing at a fast rate, the absolute growth in oil consumption from 2013 to 2014 was about 3 times the growth in solar power In this study, applications of renewable energy technologies in the oil and gas industry were analyzed. A number of photovoltaic systems were investigated as applications for providing electric power to production facilities (i.e. the oil fields of Midway-Sunset, Kern River and Louisiana Bayou in the United States). The main substitutes for oil and gas energy include nuclear power, solar power, ethanol, and wind power. Fossil fuels still dwarf these alternatives in global and domestic energy markets, but there

The energy industry is the totality of all of the industries involved in the production and sale of the fossil fuel industries, which include petroleum industries ( oil companies, petroleum The increased dependence during the 20th century on non-renewable fossil fuel and nuclear power, means that the energy industry has
Oil & gas industry is a major consumer, producer of energy. Renewable energy technologies have been used in Oil & gas industry to provide energy for small applications as standalone system to power remote areas application e.g. communications system, data transmission, control and cathodics production.
