    Description

    Approximately 200 billion cubic meters of gas are flared or vented globally each year, of which the United States is a significant contributor. Obantarla’s mission is to mitigate methane and CO2 emissions by replacing flares with systems that produce economically viable, low-carbon chemical products. At scale, Obantarla’s chemical-processing technology will significantly reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and energy consumption from the domestic upstream oil and gas sector. Obantarla is a rapidly growing small group of engineers from diverse backgrounds. The firm also draws on industry partners to help design and specify parts of its chemical reactor. During its startup phase and subsequent expansion, Obantarla has greatly benefitted from using Vault software to manage CAD files and drawings, as well as requirement documents. Furthermore, the generative design tools available in Autodesk Fusion 360 software have allowed for rapid design iterations of complex custom parts for additive manufacturing.

    Key Learnings

    • Learn about how eliminating natural gas flares will significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help mitigate climate change.
    • Discover how Obantarla’s chemical-processing technologies will convert natural gas that would be flared into useful products.
    • Learn how to implement a document repository in Vault shared across multiple organizations to enhance collaboration.
    • Learn how to link generative designs in Autodesk Fusion 360 to Autodesk CFD tools for performance evaluation.
