About this Training
This 5-day training course offers a comprehensive exploration of the interconnected technologies of Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) and CO2 Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR). Participants will delve into the world of CCUS, understanding how they can capture CO2 emissions from various sources and explore the different pathways for utilization and safe geological storage. They will gain a thorough understanding of the various capture technologies, storage options, and the potential of CO2 for beneficial uses, with a particular focus on enhanced oil recovery.
The course then dives into the technical aspects of CO2 EOR, covering methods such as CO2 flooding, water-alternating-gas (WAG) injection, and the application of huff-n-puff technology in unconventional reservoirs like shale oil formations. Participants will learn how to design and optimize CO2 EOR projects, analyse reservoir performance, and evaluate the economic feasibility of these ventures.
They will also explore the evolving policy landscape surrounding CCUS and CO2 EOR, examining government incentives, regulatory frameworks, and the role of these technologies in achieving climate goals. Through case studies of successful projects, they will gain practical insights into project management, risk assessment, and environmental considerations.
By joining this course, the participants will be equipped with the knowledge and skills to contribute to a more sustainable energy future. Master the technologies that can help reduce carbon emissions while enhancing oil recovery and be a part of the solution in the global energy transition.
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Gain a holistic understanding of how CCUS and CO2 EOR technologies complement each other, creating a synergistic approach to sustainable energy production and carbon management.
- Develop the ability to assess the economic viability of CCUS and CO2 EOR projects.
- Understand the regulatory frameworks governing carbon capture, storage, and utilization, and analyse their impact on project development.
- Evaluate and compare the effectiveness of various CO2 EOR methods, including flooding, WAG injection, and huff-n-puff, considering reservoir characteristics and economic factors.
- Stay up-to-date on the latest advancements and research in CCUS and CO2 EOR technologies, including new capture materials, storage solutions, and enhanced oil recovery methods.
