4-C, 4-D Seismic the Next Waves

So, what will save the industry this time around, you ask? Look back for a minute at the downturn of the 1980s. Research and development continued in 3-D seismic technology, which was already in use, albeit still costly and needing refinement, during the earlier boom times. As the technology advanced and became more affordable, it revolutionized the way oil and gas is found, leading the industry out of the dark times.

SC 03: The Techniques and Business Aspects of Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage and the CO₂ Storage Resources Management System (SRMS)

As part of the international effort to combat global warming, significant attention is being given to ways to sequester (store for the long-term) carbon dioxide, which is a major contributor to the greenhouse effect. This one-day course will look at some of the ways in which carbon dioxide can be stored and provide a detailed review of the SRMS framework prepared by the Society of Petroleum Engineers to classify and categorize the storage volumes.
