Once registered with the webinar software you will receive a reminder e-mail 1 hour beforehand. \nMachine Learning and Intelligent Augmentation Applied to Legacy Subsurface Data \nPresented by Jess Kozman (Katalyst Data Management) \nAbstract \n\nRecent emphasis on low carbon energy projects in Australia  means large volumes of unstructured subsurface data become valuable to operators. . The need to  evaluate reservoirs for energy or carbon storage or light gas extraction means a requirement to de-risk geographic search and  make machine-readable text available for advanced data science algorithms. Companies with access to data gain a competitive advantage in licensing activities. Exisiting data management workflows may be too costly and resource intensive to support these emerging requirements. \nWe highlight how a  workflow using Machine Learning (ML) and Intelligence Augmentation (IA) can improve the efficiency of a typical data management workflow. Our example involves manually identifying relevant well logs in images from collection of tens of thousands of file types\, a typical task for an operator using open-file data in Australia. The current process may involve downloading from multiple state and federal repositories and manually entering indexing metadata into internal data repositories. \nWe have developed internal ML/AI data extraction workflows that that streamline automatically separating well log image files\, extracting mandatory indexing meta-data\, and presenting model-trained choices to end-users for adjustment and verification. The full solution involves image classification\, enhanced Optical Character Recognition(OCR)\, Natural Language Processing (NLP) for keyword labels and values\, and a User Interface (UI) that delivers and documents increased data quality and confidence metrics.

SUMMARY:2023 PESA WEBINAR SERIES: CCS Monitoring and Verification: Why and How?
DESCRIPTION:Kindly supported by Rock Flow dynamics  \n  \nThis live webinar will take place at: \n11am              – Perth \n12.30pm       – Darwin\, Adelaide \n1pm                – Brisbane\, Canberra\, Hobart\, Melbourne\, Sydney \n  \nUse the calendar link on this page to add this event in to your own calendar at the correct local time for your location. \nTickets are free for members (please log in to see this) and $10 for non members. \nPlease buy your tickets and immediately follow the link in the ticket e-mail (not the calendar invite or this webpage\, which is just generic and not event specific) to set up your registration with the webinar software well in advance of the time of the talk. Once registered with the webinar software you will receive a reminder e-mail 1 hour beforehand. \nCCS Monitoring and Verification: Why and How? \nPresented by Hadi Nourollah (CO2CRC) \nAbstract \n\nMonitoring and verification of CO2 plume is essential in understanding the effectiveness and potential risks associated with carbon capture and storage (CCS). Despite some degrees of ambiguity in the regulations for the monitoring requirements\, all regulators require that the operator to monitor the injection\, migration and stabilisation of the plume. 20+ years of post-injection monitoring itself can be a costly task which requires careful planning. \nThe essence of monitoring lies in the continuous assessment of the behaviour and movement of the CO2 plume within the geological storage site. This includes measurements of pressure\, temperature\, and saturation (or their changes) of the underground reservoir where the CO2 is stored. By monitoring these parameters\, the operator can ensure that the stored CO2 is being contained as intended and is not leaking into the atmosphere or triggering any unwanted effects such as seismic activity. \nVerification\, on the other hand\, focuses on confirming the accurate placement and containment of the CO2 within the storage site. This involves the use of various monitoring techniques\, such as seismic surveys\, well logging\, and pressure testing\, to assess the integrity of the storage reservoir and detect any potential leaks or migration pathways. Verification is crucial in ensuring the long-term safety and reliability of CCS projects. \nMonitoring plans are very site specific\, but the learnings can be carried over to other projects. This talk aims to introduce some elements of risking that are to be considered for any monitoring plan and how they may be addressed.

The presentation highlights how to address issues such as data scarcity and methods for screening out areas for potential injector target selection. We will then take the model into simulation and visualize parameters critical to CCS such as plume behaviour\, trapping mechanisms\, and plume size. A geomechanics solver was also utilized to assess the seal integrity of the structural trap and the risk of potential fracture generation. The model was also taken into an integrated uncertainty study to assess the impact of operational and geological inputs on the total storage capacity of the formation.

Once registered with the webinar software you will receive a reminder e-mail 1 hour beforehand. \nThe Value of Knowledge Sharing in Bringing CCS Projects to Life \nPresented by Conway Nelson (The International CCS Knowledge Centre) \nAbstract \n\nThe capture and storage of CO2 (CCS) from heavy industry has long been recognized as a critical component of achieving a carbon-neutral and sustainable energy future. However\, the deployment of large-scale CCS projects has lagged behind rates proposed by organizations like the International Energy Agency and the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Recent developments indicate a shift in this trend. The social and economic value of CCS is increasingly acknowledged\, as well as its contribution to energy security and sustainability\, leading to higher public support and capital investment. As a result\, the global pipeline of CCS projects is growing\, with the increase in potential capture capacity rising from 75 million tonnes per year in 2022 to 320 million tonnes per year in March of 2023. \nDespite aspirations\, only a handful of CCS projects have been built and brought successfully into operation. The reasons are multifaceted\, including technical\, engineering\, economic\, financial\, and political challenges. To maximize the chances of success for current projects\, it is imperative that lessons learned from previous experience are applied\, to reduce risk\, lower costs and improve the performance of the next generation of CCS technologies. \nThe International CCS Knowledge Centre is one of the world’s leading curators of knowledge and lessons from CCS projects across heavy-emitting industries including power generation\, oil and gas production\, mining\, and cement\, steel and fertilizer manufacturing. Using its unique expertise\, the Knowledge Centre provides independent advice to help companies successfully navigate the myriad technical\, economic\, policy and stakeholder issues that accompany the development of major CCS projects. The Knowledge Centre’s experience is based in Canada\, which is a world leader in CCS development with five of the 30 industrial-scale CCS projects globally\, including the ground-breaking SaskPower Boundary Dam 3 CCS Facility (BD3 CCS facility)\, the world’s first fully integrated post-combustion CCS facility on a coal fired power plant. \nSaskPower’s BD3 CCS facility has effectively captured and sequestered over 5 million tonnes of CO2 since 2014\, with a 90% capture capability. As global efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions gain momentum\, it becomes increasingly vital for there to be real-world examples of successful implementation of large-scale CCS technologies. The BD3 CCS facility provides those critical lessons learned and has paved the way for innovation\, increased efficiency and lower costs in future iterations of the technology across all industries. It has proven the feasibility of CCS technology at a commercial scale and provides a framework for governments and companies considering implementation. From this experience\, the Knowledge Centre has derived a set of technical\, strategic and regulatory insights and lessons that are applicable to the next generation of large-scale CCS projects across heavy-emitting industries\, and has developed a set of prioritized questions that potential project developers must ask in order to maximise the chances of a successful project.

SUMMARY:2023 PESA WEBINAR SERIES: Why We Lose Women From Geosciences - Evidence-Based Causes and Solutions (WOMEESA Network)
DESCRIPTION:Kindly supported by Rock Flow dynamics  \n  \nThis live webinar will take place at: \n11am              – Perth\n12.30pm       – Darwin\, Adelaide\n1pm                – Brisbane\, Canberra\, Hobart\, Melbourne\, Sydney \nUse the calendar link on this page to add this event in to your own calendar at the correct local time for your location. \nTickets are free for members (please log in to see this) and $10 for non members. \nPlease buy your tickets and immediately follow the link in the ticket e-mail (not the calendar invite or this webpage\, which is just generic and not event specific) to set up your registration with the webinar software well in advance of the time of the talk.

However\, gender inequity is prevalent in STEM\, and women remain underrepresented in geosciences.  \nIn tertiary geoscience education globally\, there is an approximately even gender split that persists into research degrees. However\, the number of women begins to decrease from workforce entry\, becoming progressively worse at higher levels. In academia\, this presents as the “leaky pipeline” where the gender split at postdoctoral levels (often short-term fixed contract) is relatively even and there is a sharp decline in women entering continuing (tenured) positions and going on to senior (Professor) levels. In the minerals industry\, the most male-dominated industry in Australia comprising only 17% women\, most women are in non-geoscience roles. In mining\, there is a strong divergence in the proportion of men and women at increasingly senior levels\, with 92% of CEO positions held by men.  \nResearch into the causes of the Leaky Pipeline reveals that there are numerous contributing factors including unconscious bias against women\, lack of role models\, workplace arrangements that don’t suit mothers\, barriers to awards and jobs\, unequal access to parental leave\, bad experiences during fieldwork and sexual assault and harassment.  \nThe elimination of sexual assault and harassment through the pervasive implementation of recommendations handed down from Parliamentary inquiries and institutional and corporate investigations is essential for creating a safe space for women in Geoscience. Communication and implementation of best-practice\, evidence-based approaches\, and solutions to the many other factors contributing to the loss of women from geoscience will be valuable in creating positive change. Improved efforts to understand and address the reasons why women leave geoscience careers will help to repair the “leaky pipeline”. \nAbout the Women in Earth and Environmental Sciences in Australasia Network (WOMEESA) \n\nWOMEESA formed during the Inaugural Dorothy Hill Women in Earth Sciences Symposium in November 2017 identifying a need to bring together women in Earth and Environmental Sciences throughout Australasia.
