Short Course 1

Short course 1 – 8 Nov – 9:45 – 17:30 CET

Exploration of Subsurface Natural Geologic Hydrogen and Stimulation for its Enhanced Production

The course will discuss and compare carbon footprint versus price of the full palette of different sources of hydrogen. Material includes comparison of energy output per mass and per volume among all major fuels with H2. All industrial and natural sources and generating mechanisms and corresponding association with other gases (He, CO2, N2, CH4) as well as consumption fluxes will be described. Global occurrences and seepages of natural H2 will be presented along with worldwide ongoing and planned exploration activity. Geologic setting of the only H2 production field in Mali will be discussed.

Course outline

  1. Introduction to H2 types and sources
  2. Occurrences, origins of natural H2 and typical geologic systems
  3. Global exploration activity on example of their geologic setting
  4. Challenges of H2 exploration, drilling, transport and storage
  5. Orange H2 – concepts, challenges and efforts
  6. H2 systems modeling in white and orange scenarios
  7. Natural Helium
  8. Summary points and take home message

Participant Profile

The course is designed for anyone interested in new decarbonized energy resource study and development, students, post docs, geologists, geochemists, industry researchers, start ups, investors, government officials.

Prerequisites

Basic understanding of geology or subsurface geochemistry. None really, as the course will start from a high level introduction.
