Phanerozoic thermochronology record of Afro-Arabia through space and time Open
Low-temperature thermochronology has been widely used in eastern Africa and Arabia (Afro-Arabia) to investigate the long-term thermal evolution of the crust in response to Phanerozoic tectonism. Yet, utilisation of this invaluable thermoch…
Monitoring casing corrosion of legacy wells using CSEM: Implications for large-scale energy and CO2 storage projects in shut-down hydrocarbon fields Open
Large-scale CO2 and energy storage is a mandatory part of the green shift to reduce CO2 emissions and limit consequences of climate change. Large-scale storage will require the use of shut-down depleted hydrocarbon fields to take advantage…
Evaluating the hydrogen storage potential of shut down oil and gas fields along the Norwegian continental shelf Open
The underground hydrogen storage (UHS) capacities of shut down oil and gas (O&G) fields along the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS) are evaluated based on the publicly available geological and hydrocarbon production data. Thermodynamic equ…
Screening, Monitoring, and Remediation of Legacy Wells to Improve Reservoir Integrity for Large-Scale CO2 Storage—An Example From the Smeaheia Structure in the Northern North Sea Open
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is an inevitable action to achieve CO 2 emission reduction targets including becoming net-zero by 2050. Increased efforts are therefore required to identify suitable locations for large-scale CO 2 storage. …
Electrochemically Enhanced Deposition of Scale from Chosen Formation Waters from the Norwegian Continental Shelf Open
Reservoir formation waters typically contain scaling ions which can precipitate and form mineral deposits. Such mineral deposition can be accelerated electrochemically, whereby the application of potential between two electrodes results in…
Evaluating the well integrity of old exploration wells as a risk factor for future storage projects – an example from the Troll field in the Norwegian North Sea Open
More than 750 wildcat wells have been drilled in the Norwegian North Sea since 1966. Some of these wells could pose a risk for the environment, climate, and future H2 and CO2 storage projects by being preferred leakage paths for subsurface…
From Pre-Screening to Monitoring of Plugged and Abandoned Marine Exploration Wells - Enabling Reuse of Reservoirs for Co2 Storage through Geophysical Monitoring Open
Decommissioning of platforms and permanent plugging and abandonment (P&A) of oil and gas wells is a major future financial challenge for oil producing countries. This is especially true for offshore wells in deep water, where heavyduty dri…
Electrochemically Enhanced Deposition of Minerals from Synthetic Reservoir Brine Open
In this paper we ask the question whether or not electrochemically enhanced deposition of minerals can be utilized to repair leakage paths existing in cement plugs in wells. Electrical polarization of two electrodes may result in oxygen re…
Dynamics and evolution of continental margin clinoform systems Open
Clinoforms are aquatic sedimentary features commonly associated with strata prograding from a shallower water depth into a deeper water depth. They are very sensitive to changes in water depth, rapidly moving along the shelf in response to…
Machine learning to identify sandstone properties from thin sections Open
Sand volume and porosity measurements on sandstones are routine work in geoscientific applications, providing useful input to flow simulation in porous media-based analyses (e.g., in CO2 storage and/or hydrocarbon migration studies). The c…
Characterization and Estimation of CO2 Storage Capacity for the Most Prospective Aquifers in Sweden Open
Based on NORDICCS selection of the most prospective CO2 storage sites in the Nordic region, two saline aquifers in southern Sweden were subject to further investigations in an attempt to update the first static estimates of CO2 storage cap…
