Abstract

Rock physics connects with geophysics, petrophysics and geomechanics to adequately characterize geological reservoirs, optimize monitoring operations in the field, interpret in situ and laboratory test data, and develop accurate predictive models for extraction/injection activities. The application of rock physics is crucial to achieving net-zero carbon emissions worldwide, as we need to combine large-scale mitigation technologies like carbon capture usage and storage, together with an increasing use of renewables such as geothermal and underground hydrogen storage (UHS).
