A conference about digitalisation and subsurface data in Norway – it is a platform where one would mainly expect people from energy companies and the related service sector. But the…
Subsurface Storage
Indonesia – now is the right time to look into underground gas storage potential
Indonesia is heavily reliant on gas for a variety of purposes. This is particularly true for Java, which is the most densely populated island of the Indonesian archipelago, and which…
Very high level of confidence in long-term CO2 containment following injection, study finds
Deep geological storage of CO2 is safe. That could well be the main summary of an extensive report published by the UK Government last week. The UK Climate Change Committee…
An Onshore CCS Debacle
The owners of the Petra Nova CO2 plant, built at a Coal Power Station in Texas, went for it. Rather than constructing a 60 Mwe facility according to the first…
Abandoning a well with a CCS mindset
“The geoscience behind well abandonments is getting more challenging when we want to accommodate requirements for potential CCS projects in the area,” said Scott Liebnitz during last week’s Aberdeen Energy…
The most cost-effective way of monitoring CO2 injection
The business case for Carbon Sequestration and Storage is challenging, and that is the reason why there is a huge drive to come up with ideas to carry out the…
The deep subsurface is not always to blame
When data on land subsidence in the Epe area (Germany) was made public, Pandorra’s box opened. Those who looked at the data were quick to point their finger to the…
Subsurface CO2 storage – learning from past projects for better risk assessments
The crossover of oil and gas expertise to Carbon Capture and Storage is an important energy transition topic.
Delivering a geological service for Europe
It is a misconception that abandoning fossil fuels reduces the importance of the subsurface – whilst the use of it will materially change, it continues to play a crucial role…
An exciting future for geoscientists
Max Brouwers is an experienced geoscientist who spent 25 successful years with Shell. In this interview, Max tells us about his journey with the energy transition. Max Brouwers is an…
