Tecpetrol has launched an initiative to convert excess gas produced during oil drilling into energy for crypto mining. The goal is to minimize environmental impact by avoiding gas emissions and flaring, which burns off gas that can’t be stored or transported easily.

The project will help Tecpetrol optimize gas utilization, reduce waste, and improve crude oil production. Crypto mining will be used strategically to consume gas that would otherwise be wasted or burned.
