SEG UNIVERSITY OF PERUGIA CHAPTER EXPERIENCE AT IMAGE 2022 IN HOUSTON

SEG UNIVERSITY OF PERUGIA CHAPTER EXPERIENCE AT IMAGE 2022 IN HOUSTON

The year that is approaching to finish, 2022, started full of positive hopes to be back doing congresses and seminars in presence and, finally, met people and professionals constrained to meet only online due to the worldwide spreading pandemic in 2020 and
2021. The Chapter is composed by newly joined students and more experienced ones who
composed the previous boards. Those preserved the worthwhile aspects from the pandemic work time, such as the flexibility and efficiency resulting from different time zones where each member comes from, and pushed the From December 2021, new Officers have been elected with a list of aims to train throughout the year of the charge.

EAGE GEOTECH  – THE SECOND EAGE GEOSCIENCE TECHNOLOGIES AND APPLICATIONS CONFERENCE AND EXHIBITION 2022

EAGE GEOTECH – THE SECOND EAGE GEOSCIENCE TECHNOLOGIES AND APPLICATIONS CONFERENCE AND EXHIBITION 2022

WELCOME FROM LOCAL ADVISORY CHAIR
Subsurface & the Energy Transition: Challenging the Status Quo
With gas and advantaged oil continuing to underpin evolving energy portfolios for decades to come and the need for carbon storage rising, coupled with growing footprints in renewable energy such as wind and geothermal, the need for subsurface talent will remain strong.
EAGE GeoTech 2022 plans to bring together a diverse audience of experts to focus on key challenges across the subsurface domain. This year’s workshops will seek to address how we optimise our maturing fields, advance the dial in Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) and explore the role of fibre in monitoring and verification.

ChattingWith “A talk with Laura Bornatici, SEG Board Member”

ChattingWith “A talk with Laura Bornatici, SEG Board Member”

Why did you choose a scientific faculty after high school? Can you tell us about your career in Geoscience?
I always loved science, because it’s rigorous and logic, but also creative. I think it can help society by explaining why and how things happen leading to inventions and discoveries that support our livelihood. I’ve always been fascinated by how a problem can be solved in a logic and rigorous manner.
My first job as a geophysicist was in the field, acquiring electromagnetic and gravity data. It has been great fun; travelling around the world, working side by side with people from different background and cultures. After that I moved into processing, inversion and interpretation. Through my career I’ve been lucky enough to have seen the entire life cycle of the data we interpret. This allows me to better understand the strength and the pitfalls of our data.
I’ve been with Cairn Energy since 2011. Here I’ve been through exciting times and some disappointments, as part of the exploration cycle; it is a high risk business.

SEG – The Role of Geoscience in the Energy Transition

SEG – The Role of Geoscience in the Energy Transition

Geosciences are the core of the energy transition. It is within geological formations that high value oil and gas, a critical enabler, has formed, is explored for, and exploited. It is also within geological formations that wind turbines are founded, carbon dioxide will be stored, and other energy sources and critical minerals are found. Industry geoscientists will be highly relevant in the transition as only industry has the industrial capacity, technical and commercial human resources, financial capability, and project execution skills to facilitate the energy transition.

EAGE FAULT & TOP SEALS CONFERENCE

EAGE FAULT & TOP SEALS CONFERENCE

The Sixth International Conference on Fault and Top Seals will take place from 26-28 September 2022 in Vienna, Austria. Past conferences were highly successful in bringing together scientists from different industries (petroleum, CO2 storage and radioactive waste disposal) and academia, with a wide range of backgrounds (geology, petroleum engineering, petrophysics, geophysics, modelling, geomechanics and geochemistry) to share experiences in this field.

SEG UNIPG STUDENT CHAPTER ACTIVITY AND LATEST UPDATES SINCE COVID-19

SEG UNIPG STUDENT CHAPTER ACTIVITY AND LATEST UPDATES SINCE COVID-19

The Pandemic years were challenging to keep active the SEG UniPG Students chapter and keep attracted to new coming students. It is important to keep active the chapter and evolve new students because the SEG provides an excellent platform to build a network and skillsets on both a professional and interpersonal level, which are critical for an early career scientist.

2ND EAGE CONFERENCE ON SEISMIC INVERSION

2ND EAGE CONFERENCE ON SEISMIC INVERSION

The second EAGE Conference on Seismic Inversion will be an event of interest to geoscientists working in both industry and in academia. Seismic Inversion is a key process used extensively in exploration, production and geohazard studies. Inversion provides a way to visualize and analyze data at higher resolution than standard seismic, facilitating the estimations of reservoir properties, and acting as a link between rock physics and seismically interpreted structure models, ultimately improving the interpretation efficiency.
