They're here - our new Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) self-paced e-learning courses. RPS has developed 5 new courses to provide participants with an awareness and understanding of subsurface CO2 storage, CO2 flow in the subsurface, monitoring of the CO2 storage site and addresses the key issues of reservoir depth, well design, reservoir lithology, and quality.
This course provides participants with awareness and understanding of the subsurface needs of CCS projects.
This course provides participants with understanding of geological subsurface CO2 storage.
The course addresses CO2 as a fluid phase and the key question of CO2 storage efficiency, the equivalent of oil recovery factor.
The course considers the range of potential leakage mechanisms that need to be assessed.
This course considers the properties of carbon dioxide, contrasts its behaviour with that of methane and the interactions between CO2 and water in an aquifer.
Course Bundle
Package of five Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) self-paced e-learning courses for geoscientists and engineers at a discounted price.
This course considers the systematic evaluation of regional structure and stratigraphy to identify potential sites for geological storage of CO2.
The course considers physical mechanisms of stabilisation of injected CO2, as well as potential geological migration pathways and design of monitoring programs.
This course considers the basics of geomechanics and works sophisticated geomechanical modelling in the context of CCS and outlines the importance of geomechanics in CCS projects.
The chemistry of saline aquifers, depleted oil/gas fields and CO2 are considered alongside the reactions of CO2 with different reservoir rock minerals and cements.
This course covers the design specifics of CO2 injection wells. Such wells may be existing or new wells which need to be designed with the challenges of CO2 injection in mind.
Course considers the geological features of storage sites, focussing on the heterogeneity and presence of faults which can lead to complex flow patterns.
This course considers the controls on the flow of a CO2 plume in a saline aquifer, the fraction of pore space occupied, the rate of dissolution in brine and controls on the migration of CO2.
Discounts are available for the purchase of multi-user licences. Multi-user licences are not available to book online. For bookings and enquiries please email energytraininginfo@rpsgroup.com or complete the Contact us form below.
With each new course, you will find an overview of what the course covers and what's associated with the specific course elements in the introductory module page. Specific competencies are addressed through videos, presentation materials, interactive quizzes, 3D models, text and voice-overs. Each module is designed for flexible learning and allows for variable periods of interaction with content to suit individual needs. Click on 'Launch module' to view our demo CCS modules.
