Friday, November 22 2024, 3 - 4:15pm Geology Colloquium - GG Building 200A or via Zoom Colloquium Speaker: Dr. Felix Herrmann Title: Digital Twin for Geological CO2 Storage and Control Hosted by: Charlotte Garing Abstract: Our industry is experiencing significant changes due to AI and the challenges of the energy transition. While some view these changes as threats, recent advances in AI offer unique opportunities, especially in the context of Digital Twins for subsurface monitoring and control. IBM defines “A digital twin is a virtual representation of an object or system that spans its lifecycle, is updated from real-time data, and uses simulation, machine learning and reasoning to help decision-making.” During this talk, I will explore these concepts and their significance in addressing the challenges of monitoring & control of geological CO2 storage projects. This talk also aims to illustrate how Digital Twins can serve as a platform to integrate the seemingly disparate and siloed fields of geophysics and reservoir engineering. This is a hybrid event, if you are unable to join us in person please join via zoom. Meeting ID: 997 2477 2096 Note: A password is required to join this meeting.
