OUR COURSE OFFERINGS

This focused course is designed to address aspects of Monitoring, Measurement and Verification (MMV) plans, particularly those related to operations, surveillance, geomechanics and seismicity. The emphasis is on assessing risk and collecting data to meet MMV requirements and support the success of projects. 

The course will allow ample time for discussion, with a key topic being how to best balance meeting requirements with minimizing both risk and costs. Looking into the future, Canada is going to need 50 to 100 times more CCS projects than currently exist, even in the planning stages, and the industry will be tasked with how to decrease costs while becoming better at assessing and minimizing risk.

This 3-Day surface and subsurface course for CCUS project developers offers a comprehensive exploration of key areas crucial to Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) projects. Participants will delve into the intricacies of risk assessment, gaining insights into evaluating and managing risks associated with CCUS operations. 

The course emphasizes Monitoring, Measurement, and Verification (MMV) techniques, equipping participants with advanced tools and methods for accurate monitoring and verification of carbon storage sites. Injector analysis techniques will be covered in detail, providing participants with the skills to assess and optimize injector performance. Simulation methodologies will be explored, allowing participants to simulate complex CCUS scenarios and evaluate their effectiveness. Additionally, the course introduces analytical models as efficient tools for system optimization, risk analysis, and decision-making. 

Finally, participants will gain an understanding of wellbore design principles, ensuring the secure and efficient injection of CO2 into storage reservoirs. By the end of the course, participants will possess advanced knowledge and practical skills in risk assessment, MMV techniques, injector analysis, simulations, and wellbore design, empowering them to contribute effectively to the successful implementation of CCUS projects 

This course is intended to start with a broad overview, then dive into detailed technical work, with calculations, worked examples, and sources to familiarize team leaders and technical team members intending to undertake the main engineering and geosciences work relating to carbon capture, utilization, and storage. The content is a combination of high-level, economics, risk strategy and

technical aspects.

This course is ideal for: Project Managers, Reservoir Engineers, Facility Engineers, Business Development Managers, Production Engineers, Operations Staff, Geologists, Geophysicists, Project Managers.
