Ariane for Carbon Storage
The physical environments suitable for carbon storage vary significantly. CO2 can be injected into either structural traps, where it forms a focused accumulation, or unstructured reservoirs, where it is expected to develop as a plume. For the CO2 to remain in a supercritical phase, specific minimum pressure and temperature conditions must be met. Factors such as overpressures, seal integrity, and storage capacity must be considered at the initial screening stage. With Ariane for Carbon Storage, all prospects can be fully assessed at various levels of complexity.
Ariane for Natural Hydrogen
In the search for natural hydrogen, top-down analysis such as surface seep investigation and hydrogen occurrences meet bottom-up approaches investigating generative areas. H2 prospects are located somewhere in the middle, targeting traps with reservoir and seals on the pathway from source to surface. The uncertainty of the geochemical composition in their PVT context has a strong impact on H2 resources and their by-products (He, CH4, CO2, etc.). With Ariane for Natural Hydrogen, the economic viability of H2 prospects and their secondary resources and liabilities can be assessed easily.
Ariane for Oil & Gas
The risk and volume assessment of oil and gas prospects and potential exploration wells requires a structured methodology that integrates subsurface uncertainty. With an understanding of pore volume, the expected fluid type and its underlying controls, predictions of hydrocarbon phase, column heights and in-place volumes can be made for prospects and their different segments. The risk for exploration wells can differ significantly from the risk profile for the entire segment or prospect, depending on its position. With Ariane for Oil & Gas, prospects and exploration wells can be assessed consistently in the context of pore volume, charge, seal and PVT uncertainty.
