In a series of courses developed for oil and gas training, students can now learn about the critical role of the tree saver in AR and VR. Trees and Well Heads are critical parts of any oil and gas well, serving to regulate the production rates and are very important barriers in case of leaks. The tree saver allows the independent isolation of any operation pressure effects as well as those of the tool activation. Using an interactive model for experiential learning, students can now understand the importance of tree savers and the problems that may affect the integrity of a tree saver and the well head as part of oil and gas operations training.

EON Reality’s EON-XR Platform enables educational institutions to implement remote classrooms through the use of augmented reality. This module focuses on educational material concerning fossil fuels.

Remote classrooms lesson: A fossil fuel is a fuel formed by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing organic molecules originating in ancient photosynthesis that release energy in combustion. Such organisms and their resulting fossil fuels typically have an age of millions of years, and sometimes more than 650 million years. Fossil fuels contain high percentages of carbon and include petroleum, coal, and natural gas. Peat is also sometimes considered a fossil fuel. Commonly used derivatives of fossil fuels include kerosene and propane. Fossil fuels range from volatile materials with low carbon-to-hydrogen ratios (like methane), to liquids (like petroleum), to nonvolatile materials composed of almost pure carbon, like anthracite coal. Methane can be found in hydrocarbon fields alone, associated with oil, or in the form of methane clathrates.

As leaders around the world pledge to reduce carbon emissions, one of the most efficient solutions is the development of modern, climate resilient and low carbon district energy systems in cities. Take an immersive walk through a district heating and cooling plant to understand its role in current climate change actions.

District energy is a proven energy solution, with its roots tracing back to heating greenhouses and thermal baths of ancient Rome. Since the launch of the first commercially successful district heating system in the US in the 19th century, many have been implemented in a growing number of cities around the world. They were first used as a response to energy shortages, fuelled by coal and oil-fired central heat generation but progressively converted to combined heat and power, biomass and renewable generation for greater efficiency and sustainability. Today, in some European and particularly Scandinavian cities, almost all required heating is provided through low-carbon district energy networks.

The improved efficiencies and potential for low-carbon fuel sources in district energy systems make them a key part of climate change and renewable energy strategies in many cities. In this lesson, students can learn about the key elements of a district heating and cooling plant and how renewable energies are integrated into the energy network to reduce carbon emissions.
