Quantitative Evaluation of Sand Body Connectivity Based on the Support Vector Machine Algorithm: A Case Study of the Putaohua Oil Reservoir in the Daqing Oil Field, Songliao Basin, China

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A support vector machine (SVM) algorithm was applied to quantitatively predict the connectivity of the sand bodies. Verification using dynamic and static data demonstrated that the prediction accuracy of the algorithm reached 88%. The quantitative sand body connectivity results were used to establish a single sand body model.

Geological Screening for CO2 Storage in Deep Saline Aquifers in the Lower Mainland British Columbia (LMBC), Canada

Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Deep saline aquifers and depleted reservoirs are prime candidates for CO2 storage, but feasibility assessments remain limited in regions with little oil and gas activity, such as the Lower Mainland of British Columbia (LMBC), Canada. This study evaluates the CO2 storage potential of the Georgia Basin strata beneath the LMBC, focusing on three ...

CO2 Storage Site Selection: A Comprehensive Review of Current Approaches

Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global warming, driven by increasing anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, has emerged as a critical environmental concern. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology offers a promising solution for reducing CO2 emissions, but its effectiveness depends on identifying suitable candidates that can ensure safe, long‐term storage of CO2.

Carbon Storage in Fold‐and‐Thrust Belts: An Overlooked Gigatonne Storage Opportunity

Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents numerical investigations of the trapping characteristics of fold‐and‐thrust belt structures, defining three carbon capture and storage (CCS) play types that could be used to store commercial volumes (millions of tonnes) of CO2.
