EnergyWise: Empowering rig crews to drive energy efficiency
EnergyWise is one of Noble’s initiative to cut energy use and meet its 2030 greenhouse gas reduction target. The program encourages rig crews and third parties to adopt energy-saving behaviors, aiming for a 6 or greater reduction when the program is fully implemented. In 2024, over 400 crew suggestions were submitted. In 2025, energy-efficient behaviors will be implemented, supporting ISO 50001 compliance.
Noble’s deep dive into using green methanol in offshore operations
Integrating green methanol into offshore operations can reduce the environmental footprint and contribute to broader energy transition and decarbonization programs. In 2024, Noble conducted a feasibility study of the safety and operational and feasibility aspects of upgrading a harsh environment jackup rig offshore Norway, using green methanol as a key component.
You can’t change what you don’t measure: Energy Efficiency Insights
Noble is expediting emissions measuring to better serve our customers, regulators, and meet corporate goals to reduce emissions. EEI allows our engineers to gain insights into potential areas for energy optimizations and emission reductions.
Noble is leading the advancement of safe, cost-effective, and scalable offshore carbon capture and storage (CCS), crucial for a lower-carbon future. Offshore CCS is expected to store 25-50 percent of CO₂ from industrial sites in the coming decades. Partnering in multiple research and development projects, Noble is enhancing technology and operational capabilities to safely inject CO₂ and establish industry standards for offshore CCS equipment and rigs.
Field trip to Noble drillship engages next-generation workforce
In October 2024, UT Austin petroleum engineering students visited the Noble Globetrotter II, gaining insights into offshore drilling and industry careers. Noble showcased its focus on innovation and safety, sparking interest in offshore careers. The visit led to internship offers for several students, strengthening Noble's efforts to attract next-generation talent.
Since operations began in Guyana 2018, Noble has prioritized local workforce development. Through the Noble Marine Cadet Program, full scholarships were awarded to six Guyanese nationals in 2024 and twenty Guyanese nationals in 2025.
