Been applying for almost a year, is there something wrong with my CV ?

I've been applying for a job in the oil and gas industry for almost a year with no luck. I couldn't land any interviews for a job nor an internship. I don’t know what to do anymore. Criticise my CV maybe i can fix something in it.

Operating company wants to buy our mineral rights

My brother, sister and mom all received mineral rights to wells in Texas when my Dad passed. From time to time, we will get unsolicited offers to buy our mineral rights, which we simply vertical file. The other week we received a certified letter from the company that processes the oil and gas coming out the wells wanting to buy our mineral rights. This seems awfully suspicious to us - why would the processing company want to buy the rights? Of course, we're not going to sell, but I was just wondering if anyone could give any theories on what might be going on? I'm hoping they know they're going to expand operations and want to keep things to themselves, but that's definitely a reason NOT to sell for us!

WV o/g lease offer

I used to be more familiar with oil/gas lease offers when I lived out East, but the longer I've been away the less I'm familiar with that market. Family friend has a small parcel (just under 100 ac) in WV, has been offered $13,000 total signing bonus (seems low compared to past but I realize prices are way down) plus 15% royalty (seems normal), wondering if that's a competitive offer at this time. I have advised that they consult a professional, but just looking for general info here if possible. Thanks in advance

Anschutz Explorations Niobrara horizontal discovery in Uintah Basin 2000 bbls and 20 million gas

I heard from a friend in Utah that Anschutz has a Niobrara or Mancos well in the Uintah Basin that is flowing 20 mill gas and 2000 bbls condensate per day. Middle of nowhere and supposedly Huge well. Anyone working there? Truth? Jobs?

Who's drilling the best unconventional wells in Lower 48?🤔

Only four operators breached the 200,000 barrels in one year milestone, with Coterra leading with an impressive 467 oil wells during this period. XCL Resources is turning heads with exceptional performance in the Uinta Basin, standing strong as the sole non-Permian operator in the top 8.
With 14 out of our top 25 coming from the Permian, and notable showings from Bakken, Utica, and Eagle Ford, the dynamics are fascinating.
Larger operators like Devon, ConocoPhillips, and Marathon make their mark, but who do you think will break into this list in the next 5 years?

Sour vs. sweet gas

Does anyone know where to find out what basins / plays produce relatively sweet vs. sour gas? I've been trying to figure it out, but it's not easy to find from googling

Oil and Gas-Refinery Externship

Hi everyone!

I'm gonna have a job shadowing/externship/coffee chat in a couple days with some Electrical, Instrumentation and Process control, and Reliability Engineers in an oil refinery.

This is pretty much my first experience in the field as a student (I only have some ELEC and a bit of control theory background).

Therefore I've been doing my research about the field and how those areas are applied in a refinery.

However, I wanted to ask you guys if you have any ideas of cool questions to ask to have a more interesting talk with the experts, be it either directly related to the topic or even if it takes a bit more of a tangent.

Have a great day and thanks in advance!

What kinds of challenges do Geologists in the Oil and Gas face while extracting data from the ground for well placement

Hello,

I would like to know what kind of issues do Geologists in the Oil and Gas sector face while fetching real time data during drilling. How difficult is it to analyze and manage data?

Oil and Gas Operations Team

I recently put together a team of experienced oil and gas operations consultants. I basically cherry-picked the best professionals I could find from recent bankrupt PE companies that can handle all aspects of operations.

I am trying to find different investment groups interested in purchasing oil and gas properties, but don’t have a solid operations team put together. My thinking is that we could offer a segue from their initial investment while they put together their preferred team for operations. It would help any potential investor group seize on potential deals without a full team put together.

Any idea on investors looking for this kind of service, or any other companies similar that have succeeded in this model?

Locating land

This is a wild card for me but can someone tell me how they would go about locating land and the well that is being drilled on it based off a Distribution Deed? Shot in the dark. I love redditors

Is it about gas?

https://youtu.be/7ntnckgSgrE?si=CWx7EXj3YfwXT_2p

There are several videos floating around the Internet claiming that Israel's assault on Gaza has to do with the natural gas reserves located off the Gazan coast. At first I paid little attention to the matter. Then I decided to take a closer look. Here is what I found.

In 1967, Israel occupies the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. Then in the 1990s, Israel and the PLO sign two peace agreements. One of them grants the Palestinian Authority or PA, which emerges from the negotiations, the right over the waters off Gaza. To this day, the PA is controlled by Fatah. Fatah is a secular, nationalist and social democratic political party. In 1999, the PA signs a gas exploration contract with the company British Gas. The following year, two wells are drilled, Gaza Marine I and II. In response, Israel begins blocking any development of the gas fields. In 2006, Palestinians in the Occupied Territories head to the polls. Hamas, an Islamist militant movement and political party, wins a majority. The group takes control of the Gaza Strip and ousts Fatah officials. As a response, Israel imposes a blockade on Gaza and prohibits any offshore gas development. In 2008, Israel goes even further by taking full control of Gaza Marine, in clear violation of international law. For 14 years, nothing much happens. Oh, I forgot. In 2019, the UN publishes a study that estimates the net value of Gaza Marine at $4.6 billion. But compared to other gas fields in the Eastern Mediterranean, Gaza Marine is pretty small. It accounts for less than one percent of the region's total gas reserves.

Ok, then comes 2022. The Ukraine war, the bombing of the Nord Stream pipeline, and Western sanctions against Russian oil and gas trigger a global energy crisis. This new international context plays a crucial role in putting Gaza Marine back on the table. In October 2022, Israel, the U.S., Egypt and the PA agree on developing the gas fields. Hamas rejects the deal and accuses the PA of corruption. In June 2023, Israel gives the green light to the project. First, Hamas reaffirms its protest. But then, a few days later, the group reportedly agrees to the project in exchange for a share of the revenues.

Then comes October 7, followed by Israel's genocidal attack on Gaza. With the new reality on the ground, it is unclear whether the gas deal still stands. The war could give Israel an excuse to block all Palestinians from participating in the gas deal. Netanyahu could also cancel it altogether or simply expropriate Gaza Marine. That would be nothing new. Israel has been expropriating Palestinian natural resources for 75 years now. But I don’t think that Israel is primarily interested in Gaza's offshore gas. It's much more than that. I think instead that Israel's attack on Gaza is part of the plan to create a "Greater Israel”. Two weeks before October 7, Prime Minister Netanyahu gave a speech to the UN General Assembly. He held up a map showing Israel stretching from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean. The West Bank and Gaza were erased.

In March, Israel’s Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich delivered a speech in front of a similar map. What we are witnessing now in Gaza is an attempt to finish what began in 1948: the systematic policy of settlement, dispossession and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. More than seven decades later, Israel's Zionist, settler-colonial project is not yet complete. The goal is still the same. To take as much of Palestine as possible, with as few Palestinians living in it as possible. And politicians and military leaders in Israel have been very outspoken about their intentions.

Over 1.7 million Gazans have already been displaced from their homes. That’s 77 percent of the total population. Israel appears to be aiming to expel all Palestinians living in Gaza and pay Egypt to host them permanently. In such a scenario, the takeover of Gaza Marine would be nothing more than a by-product of the forcible creation of a “Greater Israel”.

Volt Lithium (VLT.v VLTLF) Unlocks Potential for Major Oil and Gas Partnerships with Expanded Capabilities Allowing for the Testing of Oilfield Brines From Multiple Basins Across North America

A new billion-dollar lithium battery manufacturing plant set to be supplied by domestic mining will be built in Metro Vancouver: https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/e-one-moli-energy-maple-ridge-vancouver-bc-battery-plant

This will be the largest factory in Canada for high-performance lithium-ion battery cells, producing up to 135 million battery cells per year for automotive vehicles, aerospace, consumer electronics, power tools and medical devices.

Fuelled by the increasing demand for lithium which is expected to continue to skyrocket, Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) is becoming a leading extraction option based on its ability to double lithium production while reducing environmental damage.

Having recently expanded its capabilities beyond its Rainbow Lake Lithium Project with a permanent demonstration plant capable of testing oilfield brines from multiple basins across North America in real-time, Volt Lithium (VLT.v VLTLF) has emerged as a leading DLE company poised to benefit from this news.

With the permanent demonstration plant, VLT can expand its capabilities beyond its flagship Rainbow Lake Project, opening up a vast market opportunity and enabling the use of its proprietary DLE technology to extract lithium regardless of the brine's original lithium concentrations.

https://preview.redd.it/mvr8xew8ds0c1.png?width=1702&format=png&auto=webp&s=6d0f3e09120a4cbe78f2da3ce5bb0477baa8ae1d

As DLE has the ability to double lithium production while reducing environmental damage, VLT's proprietary tech boasts an impressive lithium recovery rate of 90% from concentrations as low as 34 mg/L while maintaining commercial viability. Most notably, however, VLT's tech can achieve 97% recoveries using 120mg/L concentrations.

In offering a compelling opportunity to oil and gas operators by providing a win-win situation by adding value to existing oilfield operations, VLT is on track to become a leading player in the DLE sector.

As discussed by Volt Lithium (VLT.v VLTLF) CEO Alex Wylie, there is a massive opportunity for oil and gas companies producing significant quantities of brine as part of their normal operations to collaborate with DLE companies to add value to existing operations: https://www.asce.org/publications-and-news/civil-engineering-source/civil-engineering-magazine/article/2023/10/new-methods-could-extract-large-lithium-stores-from-brine
