Carbon Capture and Storage using Aspen SKUA (Extended Remote Class)


Accurate modeling of geological formations is essential for optimizing carbon capture and storage (CCS) processes, as it assists in understanding the subsurface properties and evaluate the potential for safely and efficiently storing carbon dioxide over long periods - which is crucial for mitigating climate change.


The goal of this training is to equip you with the knowledge and skills needed to apply the advanced geological modeling capabilities of Aspen SKUA to the specific context of Carbon Capture and Storage. Using a real dataset of a field used for carbon sequestration, you will learn various techniques for creating detailed 3D Geological model to predict the behavior of CO2 storage sites, including the assessment of the reservoir’s storage capacity.


This course includes the same comprehensive 2-day curriculum but delivered across 4 consecutive half-day live virtual sessions for zero operational downtime. You get the exact same deep-dive technical content, hands-on software runtime, and instructor-led guidance as our standard course, while leaving the rest of your workday completely free to manage asset priorities.

Audience:

Geophysicists, geologists, petrophysicists, reservoir engineers or other technical personnel interested in using Aspen SKUA to create 3D models tailored for CO2 storage.
