Objectives / scope
Develop a holistic petroleum system model:
- Unlock yet-to-find reserves in mature near-field areas
- Fluid migration with HC + Brine system
Exploration for sustainable use of Norwegian Continental Shelf:
- Provide new energy and storage opportunities
- Extend the life of existing infrastructure
Research questions
- How can we maximize data usage for building an integrated model of near-field areas and build predictive models for reservoir quality and distribution?
- What is the most efficient strategy to identify HC or geothermal reserves, and identify storage sites for H2 and CO2 to extend the life of infrastructure for long-term sustainable energy production?
- How can we improve the understanding of fluid migration to increase the success of exploration, and reduce uncertainties and risks related to leakage when injecting wastewater, CO2 and H2?
