A Geologic Framework for Fluid-Rock Systems: Applications to Sustainable Energy System

Download as PDF

Course Description

This course provides a rigorous framework for defining and working with subsurface rock-fluid systems. This has never been more relevant than in today's "new" energy climate in which multiple solutions are being tested to reduce the world's dependence on fossil fuels. Come learn how fluids such as carbon dioxide and hydrogen will flow and be stored in geologic reservoir rocks. Did you know that the framework is based on over 100 years of petroleum exploration? Let's harness the "power" of that legacy to advance society's ability to move the needle in the critical decarbonization - net zero - 1.5degC threshold.
