About Us
Our Passion
We are passionately dedicated to pioneering advancements in carbon storage across diverse subsurface landscapes, leveraging our extensive experience and deep knowledge rooted in oil and gas reservoirs to keep pushing the boundaries of carbon management solutions.
Our Interest
Basalt Formations: These are rocks formed from cooled lava. CO2 can react with the minerals in basalt to form solid carbonate minerals, permanently trapping the CO2. This process is sometimes referred to as mineral carbonation.
Saline Aquifers: These are porous rocks filled with brine (salt water). The CO2 is dissolved in the brine, which can trap it for long periods. These formations are often found deep underground and have suitable properties for CO2 storage.
Oil and Gas Reservoirs: Depleted oil and gas reservoirs are also used to store CO2. The process is similar to how oil and gas were trapped in these formations for millions of years. Moreover, the injection of CO2 can enhance the recovery of oil from these reservoirs, a process known as Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR).
Unmineable Coal Beds: These are coal beds that are not economically viable to mine. CO2 can be stored in these formations, where it adsorbs onto the surface of the coal. This process can also release methane, which can be captured and used as a fuel.
What We Do
We craft solutions rooted in the robust foundations of physics and engineering, spearheaded by a team possessing deep expertise in identifying, developing, and overseeing oil and gas reservoirs. Leveraging scientific prowess, our team is at the forefront of innovation and excellence in the energy sector.
Renewables
We are not just fans of geothermal energy; we are ardent advocates and fervent supporters in harnessing the remarkable capabilities of this earth-friendly energy source. We believe that the pathway to a greener, more sustainable future lies beneath our very feet and are dedicated to fostering innovation in the geothermal sector.
Digital Twins
We use advanced subsurface models to ensure our solutions are grounded in real-world flow dynamics. Storing carbon in subsurface rocks is a promising method for mitigating climate change, but it comes with a range of technical, economic, and regulatory challenges. It's one part of a broader strategy to reduce global CO2 emissions and transition to a more sustainable energy system.
