"In the realm of applied geophysics, we have a lot of knowledge, a lot of skills, a lot of experience in dealing with the subsurface, which translates quite well into carbon capture and storage applications."
SEG Europe Regional Advisory Committee members discuss the 4th Net-Zero Emissions annual virtual workshop.
OVERVIEW
> Why it's important to work towards a net-zero emissions future
> The role of geophysicists in addressing net-zero challenges
> The business opportunities and challenges associated with carbon capture and storage
> Why SEG is an effective forum for communication and education
Host Andrew Geary delves into the critical role geophysicists play in achieving net-zero emissions with guests Emin Sadikov, Antony Price, and Adriana Citlali Ramírez. They discuss the importance of repurposing knowledge, adapting skill sets, and contributing to carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology innovations. Learn about the industry's challenges and opportunities, the economic implications, and the importance of global cooperation in addressing climate change.
For this year's 4th Net-Zero Emissions annual virtual workshop, the organizers will bring together regulators and policymakers, operators, vendors, and academia to have a fruitful discussion on challenges and obstacles and how geoscientists can collaborate to overcome them. In addition, prominent key speakers across Europe will highlight the most successful net-zero journeys across the industry.
