CO 2 sequestration and CO 2 enhanced oil recovery (CO 2-EOR) are two major processes
that can expose the rock to CO 2. The behavior of a rock when saturated with CO 2 changes …

The Covid-19 pandemic occurred at a time of major revolution in the geosciences–the era of
digital geology. Digital outcrop models (DOMs) acquired from consumer drones, processed …

Shales have been a major focus of the energy industry over the past few decades. Recently,
there is a paradigm shift in the energy industry to low-carbon solutions, such as carbon …

Rapid extensive magmatism may have a profound effect on global climate by liberating and
releasing greenhouse gases to the atmosphere through contact metamorphism of …

The beginning of the Norwegian oil industry is often attributed to the first exploration drilling
in the North Sea in 1966, the first discovery in 1967 and the discovery of the supergiant …

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) in underground structures depends on the quality of the
geological reservoirs. Factors including interconnectivity in the pore spaces, natural …

The injection and permanent storage of carbon dioxide (CO 2) in depleted hydrocarbon
reservoirs is a norm in atmospheric CO 2 reduction practices. Currently, in the Irati …

Unconventional geo-resources are critical due to their important contributions to energy
production. In this energy transition and sustainability era, there is an increased focus on …

Depleted shale reservoirs are potentially attractive targets to store carbon dioxide (CO 2) as
free and adsorbed phases. The time-dependent efficiency factors that depict dynamic …

From 2007 to 2015, eight wells were drilled and fully cored to test the feasibility of storing
CO2 emitted from the coal-fueled power plant in Longyearbyen, Svalbard. The drilling …
