The 90th anniversary of the founding of our Society is coming up on 11 March 2020. In 1930, SEG was established at a time when the integration of geophysics — specifically, seismic and gravity — into oil exploration dramatically improved discovery successes. The amazing accomplishments and forethought of those groundbreaking pioneers in the early 20th century positioned our profession extremely well to be not only significant but vital to meeting the energy needs of the world over the last 100 years. Today, it is extremely rare that a production well is considered, much less drilled, without geophysics.

Although forests supply a major part of the energy needs of the less developed countries in the world, the industrialized nations cannot look forward to very significant contributions from existing forests in this matter. Even if the economic problems of cost are ignored there is not enough wood left, even in a forest-rich country like Canada, to provide more than about 5% of the energy needs of the country after the requirements of the forest products industries have been met. Forests can, however, supplement other energy sources in certain situations. Energy farming seems to be the only way in which forestry can make a significant long-term contribution to energy supply, particularly if research in development of wood-fired generating plants and management of stands for energy production is pursued.

Current exploration for oil is being conducted by governments, major integrated oil companies, independent oil companies and syndicates, all of whom have different interests. The interdependence of the various aspects of exploration, production, transportation, refining and consumption within the oil industry is obvious; but the interdependence of the producing, transit, refining, and consuming countries has only recently been realized by the world. Within the exploration branch of the oil industry the mutual dependence of geological and geophysical methods has become generally accepted over the past thirty years. Good early training and collaboration along the whole chain of exploration can solve many industrial problems, and education can solve the world‐wide problems between countries

Abstract. Increasing the production of clean and environmentally friendly energy has become one of the world agendas as a strategic effort in dealing with long-term climate change. Seeing the potential of the energy produced, the ease in the installation process, with the small risk of harm generated, solar energy has received significant attention from many countries in the world. The potential for solar energy in Indonesia alone reaches 207 GWp, but only 145.81 MWp has been utilized. Currently, the Indonesian government has set a target to build a Solar Power Plant capacity in 2025 of 6.5 GWh. Urban areas are areas with higher energy demand than rural areas, but the availability of vacant land in urban areas is very minimal for installing solar power plants. Therefore, rooftop solar PV(Photovoltaic) can be a solution in dense areas such as cities. Good planning by looking at the potential resources and energy needs in spatial is needed to manage and utilize energy optimally and sustainably in urban areas. This study aims to develop a geospatial assessment for plan smart energy city that uses rooftop solar PV's potential energy in every building that is effective and efficient. The novelty in the analysis of the distribution of the potential for rooftop solar PV development in urban areas integrates meteorological and spatial aspects and socio-economic aspects. Integration of multi-dynamic spatial data uses in determining the rooftop solar PV construction location, such as meteorological data for solar energy potential, increasing energy needs of each building, and socio-economy data. The data source used comes from statistical data and remote sensing data. The analysis will be carried out temporally (2008, 2013, and 2018) to see the pattern of changes in aspects used in a certain period so that the development plan can be carried out more optimally. This research's output is the formation of a priority analysis of solar PV rooftop construction in urban areas, especially the city of Bandung. The result of energy can also produce by the construction of rooftop solar PV in a potential area. This research is expected to be utilized by policymakers to develop renewable energy in the city of Bandung and increase community participation in switching to renewable energy.

Gum guar is an economically important pulse crop of Indian economy. Keeping the importance of gum guar production in to consideration the present study was undertaken to investigate the growth in gum guar area, production and productivity in India and along with peeping into the export trends of gum guar production from India. In order to fulfill the objectives of the study, secondary data on gum guar area, production, productivity and export scenario were obtained from various sources for India. The results of the study brought out that the total gum guar area, production and productivity of gum guar in India is positive with 5.30, 10.87 and 2.84 per cent, respectively from 2005-06 to 2014-15. Also, the export growth in volume and value terms is positive with 18.62 and 48.6 per cent during the same period. The increased export growth in gum guar is mainly attributed to its increasing demand from oil exploration and shale gas production in the world.

The Turkish Republics of the Caspian region have maintained their importance throughout history and are still important for a variety of reasons. Always having strategic importance, this region is sometimes commercially military-friendly. At present, the world is on the agenda thanks to rich oil and natural gas reserves, and has not been stable for many years. The search for alternative hydrocarbon resources is to meet the growing population in the world today and thus meet growing energy needs. In this case, the countries of the Caspian region have become the countries attracting attention to the rich energy resources of Western energy and global energy companies.

The Future

Since the emergence of the industrial revolution, the use of energy resources has increased considerably, particularly non renewable (coal, oil and gas), so these resources are no longer sufficient to cover the different energy needs, and this has become a challenge to the energy independance of many gouvernment now and in the future. This has caused the world to scramble for other ways to satisfy these needs in which the results of scientific research and development envolved from alternative uses of old energy sources and named green economy, and many think about the future of energy despite the barriers that still hinder the general application of this type of economy. Energy consumption in Algeria is focused almost entirely on fossil fuels, hydrocarbons, and gas in particular. In recent years, Algeria is deciding to move intro the green economy, the unique solution for meeting future energy requirements and helping reduce environmental risks.

The preservation of functionality in elders is closely associated with their nutritional status. In this context it is pivotal for them to meet their nutritional requirements, which vary according to their individual needs. The latter are influenced to a large degree by activity level and comorbidity. Most older individuals will cover their energy needs in the range 25–30 kcal/kg body weight (BW) per day, but in extreme states like hyperkinetic dementia, the daily energy requirement may amount to 40 kcal/kg BW per day. To achieve optimal protein intake, older persons will need more protein per kg BW than the World Health Organization (WHO) recommendation of 0.8 g/kg BW per day, which was not varied according to age. For slowing the associated decline in muscle mass and bone quality, 1.0–1.2 g protein/kg BW per day is recommended. In older individuals with relevant comorbidity, even higher protein intake is advisable.
