SUMMARY:The Carbon Capture and Storage 101 Webinars: CCS Infrastructure for a Net-Zero Future
DESCRIPTION:This is the second of a three-part series of webinars introducing Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) and will focus on the infrastructure needed to deploy more carbon capture projects around the world. \nCCS is making energy news headlines almost daily\, and for good reason.  As one of the most effective technologies to tackle climate change\, CCS is gaining ground across the US and around the world. Curious about the economic or climate aspects of CCS? Interested in hearing what’s happening in the CCS world? If so\, the Carbon Capture 101 Webinars series is for you. Hosted by The Global CCS Institute\, the Carbon Capture and Storage 101 Webinars will feature three\, one-hour webinars every other Friday at 10 am for the benefit of Capitol Hill staffers and other interested stakeholders. \nJoin us for our second webinar on May 7th\, CCS Infrastructure for a Net-Zero Future\, featuring four experts on CCS infrastructure projects in the U.S. and Europe. These projects transport and store captured CO2\, and the experts will discuss their experience planning\, developing and running them. A large infrastructure buildout across the globe is one of the key components that will be needed to achieve the CCS scale-up required to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. \nhttps://www.globalccsinstitute.com/news-media/events/the-carbon-capture-and-storage-101-webinars-ccs-infrastructure-for-a-net-zero-future/

SUMMARY:Core Values: the Role of Core in 21st Century Reservoir Characterisation
DESCRIPTION:Core has traditionally played a key role in the characterisation of conventional and unconventional hydrocarbon reservoirs\, from exploration to mature production. It is the only means by which to observe and make measurements on actual reservoir rock. However\, the recent oil industry downturn has driven many to question the value of taking core\, due to the associated increased costs and potential risks to well operations. In tandem\, advances in other reservoir visualisation techniques\, such as seismic and borehole imaging\, have been used to give weight to the contention that coring is an increasingly redundant means of characterising reservoirs. \nThrough four main themes this 3-day conference will aim to redress the balance in this debate by exploring the role core can\, or should\, play in the 21st century exploration to production cycle: \n• Is core critical to sound commercial decision making? \n• What are the challenges and benefits of integrating core-derived understanding across the geological\, petrophysical and engineering spectrum? \n• Integration of traditional core characterisation methods with new core\, well and reservoir visualisation and mapping technologies – is the sum greater than its parts? \n• How can the extensive network of global legacy core collections best be utilised to maximise their business and research worth? \nDedicated sessions will allow delegates to view core that has been central to addressing many key reservoir issues\, under the direct guidance of those responsible for meeting such challenges. Speakers are thus invited to bring core to illustrate their presentation\, and indicate if this is of interest when submitting an abstract.

SUMMARY:The role of gas in Europe’s future energy mix and the transition to zero carbon of Europe’s power sector
DESCRIPTION:The lower carbon intensity of natural gas – which produces half the emissions of coal when burned in power plants – and the emergence of new technologies like hydrogen are setting gas apart from other fossil fuels in the clean energy transition.  \nCan gas\, whether renewable or abated through CCS\, be the optimal complementary energy technology to balance intermittent renewable electricity such as wind and solar in the coming decades? And how can we ensure enough funding for the different technologies for decarbonisation?   \nJoin this EURACTIV debate to discuss the role of gas and gas infrastructure in Europe’s future energy mix and the transition to zero carbon of Europe’s power sector. \nhttps://events.euractiv.com/event/info/the-role-of-gas-in-europes-future-energy-mix-and-the-transition-to-zero-carbon-of-europes-power-sector

SUMMARY:Certification of carbon removals: the first step towards an EU market mechanism for negative emissions
DESCRIPTION:The Commission scenarios show that the EU will have to rely on a substantial amount of carbon removals to reach climate neutrality by 2050 and achieve net-negative emissions thereafter. This is why the Commission is now designing an EU-wide carbon removal certification mechanism covering both nature-based and technological solutions. Removal of atmospheric or biogenic CO2 requires a GHG methodology and a regulatory framework that are formally separated from emissions reduction measures supporting capture\, use and storage of point source CO2. This is an important first step towards providing adequate mandates and incentives for much-needed market take-up of carbon removal solutions. \nJoin us to hear from DG Climate and the Austrian Environmental Agency about the plans and progress of an EU certification mechanism\, followed by views from developers of technological and hybrid carbon removal projects\, as well as policy practitioners developing a carbon removal obligation concept. \nhttps://www.negative-emissions.org/events

SUMMARY:EFG Webinar: Natural Hydrogen Resources
DESCRIPTION:On 15 April 2021\, EFG is organising the webinar ‘Natural Hydrogen Resources’.\n\n\n\nHydrogen has been present in the industry as a raw material for a long time and\, except for rocket takeoffs\, its energetic capacity was rarely used\, at least for the second part of the 20th century. The landscape is changing since green fuels are looked for to decrease the CO2 impact of mobility and to improve the air quality of cities. The use of H2 as fuel is growing and the demand for green hydrogen\, not manufactured from hydrocarbons\, is following the same trend. In that frame\, the production of native H2 appears as a promising alternative and exploration is starting in various countries after the fortuitous discoveries of accumulations in different places and the first years of production in Mali. It should be noted that some authors already informed the scientific community some time ago on this resource without receiving any attention from the extractive industry\, but times are changing. \nEven if some questions remain open\, the geological context that allows H2 generation in the subsurface is starting to be known and natural H2 has already been found in three geological tectonic settings: \n\n\nextension zones (Mid Oceanic Ridge\, Iceland\, and African Rift); \n\n\n\n\ncompression zones involving ophiolitic nappes (Oman\, Philippines\, New Caledonia); and \n\n\n\n\nstable intracratonic basins above Archean to Proterozoic basement (Brazil\, Russia\, USA\, Australia\, Mali). \n\n\nIn this webinar\, we will present a state of the art on the knowledge and open questions about this new resource. \nIsabelle Moretti\, senior researcher at the University of Pau and the Adour Region (UPPA)\, will be the presenter. She is a scientist with a master’s in mathematics and a PhD in earth science from the Paris XI University. Moretti was appointed as visiting scientist at Cornell University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She began her career in 1987 at the French Petroleum Institute (IFPen) where she worked on various projects in France and abroad. She worked in fundamental research but also developed professional software. She has interspersed her research and appraisal activities for industry (TOTAL\, CEPSA\, YPFB) with work for governmental entities (IRD\, CNRS\, ANR\, CEE\, Ancre). She is the author of more than 130 scientific papers and has given courses in various universities worldwide. She has been also the president of GERG (European Gas Research organization)\, a member of the board of Ineris (French National Institute for Industrial Environment and Risks) and BRGM (French Geological Survey) and an expert in various commissions. She is now leading a team dedicated to natural hydrogen at the UPPA where she is working on different case studies in Brazil\, Australia\, Iceland and the Afar region. \nThe webinar is scheduled for 5 – 6 PM CEST. \n\nPlease register for the free event here.

SUMMARY:EFG Webinar: EU Strategy to Secure Access to Mineral Raw Materials
DESCRIPTION:On 8 April 2021\, EFG is organising the webinar ‘EU Strategy to Secure Access to Mineral Raw Materials’.\n\n\nVitor Correia\, Past President of EFG and Secretary-General of the International Raw Materials Observatory will be the presenter of the webinar. \nThe EU recently launched the European Raw Material Alliance\, a partnership between industry players\, EU countries and regions\, trade unions\, civil society\, research and technology organisations\, investors and NGOs to ‘reduce Europe’s dependency on third countries\, diversifying supply from both primary and secondary sources and improving resource efficiency and circularity while promoting responsible sourcing worldwide’. \nThis signals an evident concern from policymakers on the European industry dependency on raw materials imports from third countries. \nThere are two good reasons for this concern: \n\nDelivering the European Green Deal would require vast quantities of mineral raw materials;\nResources nationalism is rising (even inside the EU)\, alongside the international rivalry to securing access to mineral raw materials.\n\nIn this context\, would the EU exercise of “soft power”\, applying the principles of cooperation\, inclusiveness\, transparency and respect of trade and competition rules\, be sufficient to meet the European demand for mineral raw materials? This will be the central question to be addressed in this talk. \nThe webinar is scheduled for 5 -6 PM CEST (Brussels time). \nPlease register for the free event here.

SUMMARY:Science for Disaster Risk Management 2020: acting today\, protecting tomorrow
DESCRIPTION:The “Science for Disaster Risk Management 2020: acting today\, protecting tomorrow”\, the second of it series\, has been produced with the collaboration of more than 300 experts in disaster risk management. The participants come from different disciplines and sectors (from academia\, civil protection groups\, international organisations and the private sector\, among others) to provide the reader with accurate and updated information on the consequences that disasters have on key assets of society (population\, economic sectors\, critical infrastructures\, environment and cultural heritage) and how these can be managed. Based on all the information collected\, a set of recommendations are provided to four target groups of society (policymakers\, practitioners\, scientists\, citizens) to actively reduce disaster risk in the EU. \nThe authors of the report conclude that it is necessary to reinforce collaborative processes where stakeholders share their knowledge and co-create action\, paying particular attention to the role of citizens and the private sector. At the same time\, it is key to develop a frame to collect\, store and reuse data and information from the aftermath of a disaster to understand the drivers and conditions that lead to losses and damages and so plan more effective measures to protect our future. As the Report aims to move from identifying needs to showing solutions and approaches for action\, the launch event would be a good opportunity to engage with different stakeholders to explore how the proposed recommendations can be put into practice.

SUMMARY:Opportunities in CCS: Finding Government Funding and Business Partners
DESCRIPTION:2021 could well be The Year of CCS. The growth in CCS projects is being driven by many factors: an increasing realization of the dangers of climate change\, an acknowledgement of the important role CCS plays in net-zero scenarios\, decarbonization commitments from governments and business\, and increased financial investment from both. \nIncreased CCS investment by governments\, including funding of technology development\, means increased opportunities for business. But how does a business access this funding? How does one know where to look\, and how can a company position itself for success? And how do CO2 emitters and CCS technology and service providers find each other. \nIn this webinar\, we will look at how financial support from federal governments is driving both CCS technology advancements and the financing of demonstration projects. In the US\, the recently passed Energy Act of 2020 brings the potential of substantially more US Department of Energy funding opportunities for carbon capture. The government of the Netherlands has already begun the process of funding a new round of CCS projects in that country. This webinar will provide insights into navigating transatlantic government funding opportunities and identify the priorities for funding across various sectors.

SUMMARY:Investing in Geothermal energy as a key solution for a Just Transition
DESCRIPTION:Geothermal energy is the most diverse renewable energy source\, being used for heating\, cooling\, electricity\, and even critical raw materials. In this high-level event\, the expert panel will discuss how investing in geothermal energy can support a just transition for those regions most dependent on fossil fuel energy systems.\nThrough the conversion of hydrocarbon infrastructure and the development of local clean energy projects\, the geothermal sector can provide a path to achieving the European Commission’s 55% emissions reduction target by 2030. Further\, some case studies from the Horizon 2020 GEOENVI project will offer concrete examples on how the geothermal just transition works in practice.

SUMMARY:6th Annual Innovation in Tunnels: Construction\, Maintenance\, Safety & Fire Protection
DESCRIPTION:With over 55 live tenders for construction/development of new tunnels in just Spain\, Switzerland\, Italy and Belgium at the time of writing this\, it is safe to say that tunnel construction/ development is growing at a very fast rate.  Our last 3 Annuals on Tunnels were based around Fire and Safety\, our 4th had a slight twist where we touched on the maintenance as well as the safety aspect of tunnels as the title suggests. The 5th Annual was in Chamonix and we had two technical tours of one of the most famous tunnels in the world – The Mont Blanc Tunnel and the other of a partially built tunnel by Telt. \nEnigmaCG’s 6th Annual Webinar on Innovation in Tunnels: Construction\, Maintenance\, Safety & Fire Protection touches on all aspects of a tunnel. Innovation and the emerging of new technologies that go along with a tunnel will always be highly sought after to ensure that not just newly developed but also existing tunnels adhere to these best practices.
