Workshop 1

Workshop 1 – 4 November – 09:30 – 16:30

APPROPRIATION OF THE SUBSURFACE AND ITS USAGE

Description

Energy transition is one of the key factors to tackle climate change in the coming decades. In this energy transition, the subsurface has a major role to play in providing new decarbonised energies (geothermal energy), store new energy alternative (hydrogen) or low energy production residue (nuclear power wastes), as well as providing alternatives to areas where the industry has difficulties to decarbonise (CCS). Problematically, the subsurface is intrinsically invisible and only accessible through indirect methods. The result has been a concentration of the discussion about its usage between specialists. As a result, the connection with the other stakeholders has only happen either to request permits for its usage (with the authorities and institutional decision-makers) or when issues happen (especially with the general public) such as earthquake. There is now an increasing trend in the community to involve more the different stakeholders beyond the experts and find new ways to interacts going beyond the “deficit model”.

In this workshop, we aim to explore a broad range of methods to understand and involve the stakeholders into the different usage of the subsurface (e.g., geothermal, minerals, storage). The workshop will be a platform to discuss latest trend and results. The proposed format will involve a morning of presentations to bring an understating of the variety of method and applications to provide discussions over breaks. The afternoon will be reserved for a keynote followed by a round table.

Dariusz obtained his MSc at Wroclaw University in Poland in 2002.

After his PhD (2007) in geology, gas isotope geochemistry and microbiology at the Indiana University, Bloomington, he has worked in Subsurface Technology at ConocoPhillips for three years followed by one year of consulting (Dariusz BioGeoChem) working on petroleum systems and subsurface biomethane stimulation.

In 2012 he has joined SLB and since then has been developing interpretation workflowsand answer products for surface formation evaluation (mud gas and cuttings logging). Since couple of years his works involves H2 and helium logging and exploration, for which the global activity is rapidly growing.

This topic also brings ideas of stimulated natural H2 in the subsurface, which brings together geological and fluid geochemistry knowledge to a new level of collaboration among academic and industrial communities.

Dariusz is very active within the geochemistry community, with multiple peer-reviewed papers and chapters, numerous conference-related activities, journal editorships, and intellectual property publications.
