We are pleased to collaborate with Petriva Ltd. (https://www.petriva.co.uk/en/) on projects related to Carbon Storage and Sequestration and Experimental Inverse Modelling. Petriva is a spin-out company from the University of Leeds that offers visual data analysis and data mining software, consultancy services, and training for the petroleum industry.
Integrated Geomechanical–Geophysical–Flow Modelling for Safe Carbon Storage (INCAST)
This joint industry project brings together TCGA, Petriva, the University of Leeds, and the University of Oxford. The project aims to develop guidelines and tools to support the implementation of commercial-scale carbon capture and storage (CCS) operations.
Key objectives include:
Enhancing predictive capabilities for CO₂ behaviour.
Establishing robust risk assessment frameworks.
Developing optimised operational strategies for injection and monitoring.
Better predict and mitigate against induced seismicity.
The research focuses on improving assessments of potential leakage pathways, such as fault reactivation and caprock integrity, while investigating self-sealing mechanisms and advanced geophysical monitoring techniques.
Experimental Inverse Modelling - Data Mining and Analysis
This project, alongside the University of Leeds, focuses on developing or applying methods and codes to automatically invert laboratory experiment data, generating a range of solutions that can be used to assess uncertainties in geomechanical-flow models across various applications.
A central component is the use of PETMiner, Petriva’s advanced data visualisation and data mining tool, to integrate and analyse microstructural and petrophysical data.
The collaboration promotes a comprehensive workflow that combines:
ParaGeo for geomechanical simulation.
PGInv for inverse modelling.
PETMiner for integrated data analysis.
Together, these tools aim to advance modelling capabilities and inform critical decisions in subsurface engineering.
