March 08, 2016
All living things — from animals and plants down to cells — carry inside them a clock set to the most basic cycle on Earth: night and day. Scientists believe that this clock, called circadian rhythm, dates to the very beginning of life on Earth, some 3.5 billion years ago. It helps us stay awake and active when the sun is out, and rest during the night so cells can carry out basic maintenance and the brain can record memories.

Elisabeth B Kvalheim Chief Technology Officer Statoil
February 21, 2016

For the oil & gas industry, collaboration means competitiveness in tomorrow’s low-carbon reality.

 

The future of energy is heavily dependent on the collective ability — and determination — of the oil and gas industry itself to evolve and stay competitive in tomorrow’s low-carbon reality.
