Session Details:

Tuesday 12th March | Integrated Asset Modelling for Enhanced Operational Performance

In today’s complex operational environment, the ability to integrate data, workflows, and models across multiple disciplines is essential for optimising asset performance and maximising returns. In this webinar, we outline the fundamentals of Integrated Asset Modeling (IAM) and its role in holistic asset management, exploring the key benefits and challenges associated with implementing IAM solutions. We will demonstrate how production forecasting and field development planning can be improved by integrating reservoir, well, surface facilities, and economic models in tNavigator, resulting in improved efficiency of IAM workflows and better understanding of risks.

Thursday 14th March | Using Advancements in Geomechanics for Optimised Hydraulic Fracture Modelling

Hydraulic fracture modelling often poses challenges due to the complex nature of subsurface geology and uncertainty in reservoir parameters. Variations in rock properties such as porosity, permeability, and lithology can significantly impact fracture propagation and fluid flow behaviour. tNavigator offers a range of hydraulic fracture simulation options, each customised to different levels of complexity depending on the available data. The purpose of introducing these diverse options is to provide our users with valuable insights into the various methodologies for understanding alterations in the rock caused by hydraulic fractures and their subsequent effects on reservoir performance.

Tuesday 19th March | Breaking Barriers in Geomodelling with Transformative Static Workflows

Collaboration between multiple disciplines is essential for overcoming challenges and building an accurate and reliable reservoir model. In this webinar, we offer the opportunity to enhance your understanding of geomodelling functionalities within tNavigator, and discover how our integrated architecture enables the seamless connection between domains. Each step of a typical static model build will be covered, from geological interpretation to uncertainty analysis. Our experts will guide you through the model building workflow including: 2D attribute mapping, well correlation, fault/horizon QC, structural gridding, property interpolation, volumetrics and uncertainty quantification.

Thursday 21st March | Probabilistic Method for Assessing CO2 Migration Pathways

Carbon Capture, Utilisation, and Storage (CCUS) technologies play a crucial part in decarbonisation projects. However, they present several challenges due to complex modelling techniques and the uncertainties associated with various factors. Discover how we are innovating in the CCUS compliance space by improved modelling through probabilistic assessment techniques. Leveraging multi-disciplinary uncertainty workflows and Python, together with the speed, flexibility, and integration of tNavigator, this webinar showcases cutting-edge strategies for evaluating CO2 migration pathways and geomechanical rock failure predictions beyond traditional methods, providing you with dynamic, outcome-focused solutions for meeting regulatory demands of the industry

The picturesque city of Tokyo, Japan, served as the dynamic backdrop for a groundbreaking event that unfolded on December 5-6, 2023 – the Carbon Capture Storage (CCS) Summit. This transformative two-day experience brought together global industry leaders, fostering an environment of collaboration, innovation, and shared commitment to a sustainable future.

Attendees were immersed in a world of cutting-edge innovations, gaining exclusive insights into the latest advancements in carbon capture and storage. The event showcased breakthrough technologies, strategies, and projects aimed at mitigating carbon emissions and accelerating the transition to a low-carbon economy. Our success was underscored by an exceptional lineup of Japanese and international speakers, each a luminary in their field. These visionaries shared invaluable insights, experiences, and visions for the future of CCS.

As we reflect on the success of the Tokyo CCS Summit, we also look ahead with optimism. The knowledge shared, partnerships forged, and innovations showcased during these two days serve as a catalyst for ongoing advancements in carbon capture and storage. Together, we are laying the foundation for a greener, more sustainable future.

Lastly, a sincere thank you to all participants, speakers, sponsors, and attendees who made the Carbon Capture Storage Summit in Tokyo an unforgettable and impactful event. Your dedication to creating a sustainable future is the driving force behind our collective success.

Here’s to a future where carbon capture and storage solutions pave the way for a cleaner, more resilient planet!
