Near Surface Geoscience 2017
2017-09-03 08:00 - 2017-09-07 17:00 | Malmö, Sweden
The SES conference series is a relatively new initiative and aims to bring together geoscientists working in CO2 storage, geothermal applications, deep earth storage solutions and related topics. To meet the challenges of present and future energy demand, the geosciences play an increasingly important role in the sustainable use of the Earth and its resources and in the conservation of our environment. Numerous technologies (storage of gases, geothermal, waste disposal, oil & gas, mining, etc.) use the subsurface – sometimes in synergy, sometimes in competition. SES 2017 seeks to address these challenges and promotes the development of applied geoscience and technology with regard to sustainable use of the Earth and its limited resources.

Geothermal Cross Over Technology Workshop
2017-04-25 08:00 - 2017-04-26 17:00 | Durham, United Kingdom
The geothermal potential of the global petroleum industry dwarfs the global geothermal power industry by perhaps a factor of ten. Rudimentary calculations based upon the cumulative flow rate and temperature of unwanted co-produced water indicate that the wasted power generation capacity could be as much as 100 GW. However, it is not just the unrealised geothermal potential of petroleum production which could bring these two geoenergy industries together but the opportunities for exchange of technology and best practices. Seismic is a staple technology of both the petroleum and geothermal industries but it is used in different ways. Continuously monitored micro-seismic activity is used to characterise geothermal developments while 3D and time lapse repeat seismic surveys are pre-eminant in the petroleum industry. Drilling and wireline tools developed for high temperature geothermal energy developments might easily be applied in high temperature, high pressure petroleum exploration and production and technology developed for oil and gas could find a new market in geothermal. And, underlying all of this, the basics of exploration, appraisal, development and production geoscience are common to both geothermal and petroleum industries.
The aim of this meeting is to explore the potential for cross-over technology and cross-over experience between the petroleum and geothermal industries and to examine what opportunities exist for improving the efficiency and effectiveness of both industries, maintaining delivery of energy to society and reducing the impact on the Earth of doing so.
Workshop Themes to Include:
Evaluating the prospectivity of fluid systems: lessons from the petroleum and geothermal industries.
Modelling and measuring fluid flow in geothermal and petroleum systems.
Impact of geothermal fluids on maturation and migration in petroleum systems.
Combined petroleum/geothermal/mineral systems
Using geothermal energy to add value in the oil & gas industry.
Hydraulic Fracturing: lessons for the Petroleum Industry from Geothermal Fields — fracking with hot fluids
Enhanced oil recovery using geothermal fluids.
Geothermal petroleum systems
Enhanced geothermal systems and petroleum reservoir fracking
Hot rock drilling, logging and completion
Monitoring performance — petroleum vs geothermal (in a sense 4D seismic vs microseismic)
The meeting will take place at the ancient Durham University in historic Durham City in northern England; a seat of learning and scholarship since the 7th century AD. Keynote speakers will be drawn from the two industries and from academia.

International cooperation on natural resources: geoscientists’ contribution to enhanced governance, policy making and attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals
2017-02-09 08:00 - 2017-02-10 17:00 | Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences, Rue Vautier 29 , Brussels, Belgium
BACKGROUND
The continuing rise in global population and living standards, as well as technological innovation, is increasing global demand for energy and minerals with consequent requirements for a broader and more diversified range of natural resources, including conventional fossil and nuclear fuels and renewable energy. The combined effect is a global rush to secure sustainable supplies of energy, minerals and water.
In this context, a transparent and consistent estimation and classification methodology for mineral and renewable energy resources is vital to support international and national resources management and forecasting, as well as to advance global cooperation. Reliable estimates of mineral and energy reserves and resources, including renewables – coherent with social and economic aspects – are critical for effective resources management and attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Ensuring sufficient, reliable, affordable, and environmentally responsible supplies of energy and minerals for sustainable development is a key challenge for the world.
The United Nations Framework Classification (UNFC) is a unified management system for energy resources, including renewables, and solid minerals (for both energy production and non-energy applications) – providing a single framework on which to build international energy and mineral studies, analyze government resource management policies, plan industrial processes and allocate capital efficiently. UNFC has taken fossil energy and minerals classification from describing the natural endowment to classifying the projects exploiting them. It has moved classification from answering the question of “what have we found” to the question we need to answer now of “what can we get” out of the endowments we have found.
In Europe and beyond, the use of common and universally classification standards for energy resources can actively contribute to more reliable inventories of natural resources providing data comparability and consistency at a range of scales and will help to ensure a better governance of these resources with a number of objectives:

Maximizing opportunities at EU or Member State level – updating natural resource inventories, and developing and implementing policies to support their sustainable development and to not inadvertently lock out energy sources or mineral deposits that could be exploited sustainably through land use;
Reducing risk and creating opportunities at financial market level – ensuring that investors have access to reliable information to underpin investment decisions, and providing regulators with consistent information to ensure the highest standards;
Reducing risk and creating opportunities at company level and for regulators – maintaining information on fossil and renewable energy and mineral production potentials using a standard resource classification that is suitable for business planning and monitoring, for shaping effective legal, regulatory, fiscal and contractual framework conditions, for making decisions on infrastructure – soft and hard – and for aligning stakeholder interests more generally;
Leveraging international cooperation and partnerships – supporting international cooperation and collaboration through global standards for communications and exchange of information.

AIM
This conference will foster the convergence of terminology and the comparability/compatibility of data, thus contributing to the creation of a solid European Knowledge Database on mineral and energy resources. Such harmonization is equally important to government policymakers and to companies and regulators within the energy and minerals industries, including the users and providers of data on energy and minerals reserves and resources and renewable energy. UNFC will be reviewed, including its potential for application in Europe and beyond and its relationship with other classification and public reporting systems.
SPEAKERS
There will be presentations from speakers representing a range of relevant UNECE and European policy areas linked to energy and minerals, as well as from international and European experts drawn from regulatory authorities, industry and non-governmental organizations. There will also be contributions from representatives of fossil and renewable energy companies, the mining industry and academia.
AUDIANCE-WHO SHOULD ATTEND
The conference provides a unique opportunity to discuss a transparent and harmonized classification framework for fossil and renewable energy sources and minerals in a cross-disciplinary environment, including EU policymakers, UN representatives, international energy experts, national government officials, academics, energy and minerals company executives, as well as finance, industry and environment experts.
