As global demand for critical minerals such as lithium, potash, and uranium accelerates, so does the need for smarter, more sustainable extraction methods. Enter solution mining: a low-impact, high-efficiency technique that’s quietly transforming the mining landscape. From freeze walls enabling uranium recovery, to deep brine lithium extraction, this method is unlocking resources once thought unreachable. Saskatchewan, Canada, is a key location leading the charge. Wood is proud to be part of this evolution, bringing decades of expertise to projects that are reshaping the future of mining. 🔗 Read how solution mining is changing the game: https://lnkd.in/dfknRSCQ #CriticalMinerals #SolutionMining #Lithium #Uranium #Potash

We are proud to have played a crucial part in Preem AB’s Synsat refinery, having successfully managed the engineering, procurement and construction (EPCm). ⭐ The refinery will produce high-quality, 100% renewable diesel, made entirely from used cooking, rapeseed and vegetable oils, plus a byproduct of the pulp industry. Thanks to a US$31.5 million investment, Synsat will supply around 15% of Sweden’s annual renewable fuel demand. 💡 As with many of our projects, this was completed without disrupting refinery operations. With a peak workforce of 1,500, the project's complexity meant safety, precision and teamwork were critical success factors. We design the future, providing solutions to the world’s greatest engineering challenges. #renewables #decarbonisation #energytransition #designthefuture

What is the key to a sustainable future in mining? ⛏️ Exploration gets a lot of attention and for good reason. But as Edwin Peralta, Wood’s Technical Director of Mining & Geology, points out, the real opportunity to drive change lies in processing and refining. These stages are where we can apply known science, new technologies, and smarter thinking to reduce emissions, improve efficiency, and make better use of resources. As demand for critical minerals grows, we need to focus not only on discovery but on delivery. Read the full piece from Edwin ➡️ https://lnkd.in/evmW9HP3 #Mining #Sustainability #CriticalMinerals

Oil production is currently projected to decline by 15% annually. 📉 So, what can be done to optimise energy production to meet the rising global demand? 💡Enhanced Oil Recovery is an option for offshore assets, and powering platforms with nuclear energy can be a low-emission alternative to costly, space-intensive gas turbines and fossil fuel-based systems. Ricardo Castillo, MBA, PMP explains how nuclear-powered Enhanced Oil Recovery has the potential to revolutionise offshore energy ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eDNHsfV4 #EnergySecurity #OffshoreEnergy
