As carbon capture and storage (CCS) is scaled up to mitigate global warming, in line with recommendations by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the onus is on operators and regulators to demonstrate safety and efficacy before and during operation, and to provide a robust case that carbon dioxide will be safely sequestered for centuries once operations cease.
Building on the previous successful CCS conferences in 2022 (CCS workflows) and 2023 (CCS storage efficiency), this third Energy Group CCS symposium will focus on the characterisation and monitoring of containment to optimise CCS field development and to demonstrate safety of CO2 storage.
We welcome contributions from industry and academia in two major categories:
1. Understanding the storage complex prior to project commencement/design phase, including:
- geological seals around wellbores;
- unconventional seals;
- role of faults and geomechanics on containment
- geological and risk characterisation of sealing sequences;
- basin to pore-scale geology and characterisation of seals and potential leakage features; and
- quantification of containment risk.
2. Monitoring during operational phase through to long-term stewardship, including:
- baseline;
- seabed monitoring;
- low-cost geophysical monitoring;
- non-geophysical monitoring technologies;
- remote sensing;
- monitoring tools on depleted fields; and
- monitoring case histories and strategies.

Event Workshop
Registration via the website has now closed is you wish to register for the workshop please contact [email protected]
An interactive workshop on bowtie analysis will be held on Day 1, guided by well known industry experts. The workshop involves an introductory lecture and a small-group interactive session. We ask that interested parties register separately for this so we can allocate participants to groups in advance of the workshop.
Registration for the workshop is free of charge, however you must already be registered for the conference to be able to attend the workshop.
Anyone not registered for the workshop will be welcome in the introductory lecture and will have an opportunity to stretch their legs along Piccadilly during the workshop as this will utilise all available space in Burlington House.
