  • Hydrogen's role in renewable energy system.
  • Large-scale underground hydrogen storage.
  • Focus on fluid properties of hydrogen.
  • Policies for safe gas and hydrogen storage.
  • Course designed for petroleum engineers and geoscientists.

Overview

The Online Underground Hydrogen Storage Training Course focuses on the current state of underground gas storage, with a special emphasis on hydrogen. The course covers the theoretical and practical aspects of underground gas or hydrogen storage, discussing concepts, advantages, and potential interactions. Participants will gain confidence in understanding geological gas storage types, fluid properties, and safety regulations. The course is designed for petroleum engineers or geoscientists interested in this field, offering group discussions, examples, and case histories to enhance learning.

Who should attend

Petroleum Engineer, Geoscientist

Course Content

DESCRIPTION

Hydrogen is expected to take a leading role in a renewable energy system. Hydrogen gas can be generated in various different ways (and “colours”) but its production will not follow the market demand, hence, there will be a need of large-scale hydrogen storage in the geological subsurface. This course will deal with the current state of the art of underground gas storage, with the special fluid properties of hydrogen and the existing experience in the field. Also, special attention will be given to policies and regulations for safe operations of underground gas (and hydrogen) storage.

Course Level: Skill

Duration: 3 days
Instructor: Leonhard Ganzer

DESIGNED FOR YOU, IF YOU ARE…

  • A petroleum engineer or geoscientist with some experience in the field and interested in underground gas or hydrogen storage

HOW WE BUILD YOUR CONFIDENCE

The theoretical and practical aspects of underground gas or hydrogen storage are discussed in a group setting preferably face-to-face or in virtual instructor led sessions along with examples and case histories. You will be encouraged to engage in discussions based on your experience.

Videos will strengthen your understanding of the theoretical and operational principles. Working on examples with calculation will support the learning experience.

THE BENEFITS FROM ATTENDING

By the end of the course you will feel confident in your understanding of:

  • The concepts and principles of underground gas storage with focus on hydrogen and gas mixtures (H2 & natural gas)
  • The advantages and disadvantages of gas storage in caverns, depleted hydrocarbon fields and aquifers
  • The potential fluid-fluid and rock-fluid interactions during hydrogen storage in the geological subsurface
  • The requirements by mining laws/authorities for safe hydrogen storage

Testimonials

We’ve helped thousands of professionals grow their skills and confidence. Hear directly from the people who’ve taken our training courses.

The course was exceptional, well run in terms of delivery of information, IT online course but seamless. Very interesting examples of temporary works failures applicable to the businesses we worked in. Break out activities / group examples worked very well and were again well managed by the trainer. Fantastic course, I will recommend to others! Best course I have attended in years!

Black & Veatch

The trainers knowledge was excellent and I liked his examples and how he could relate them to every day relatable examples that we could all understand. Coming from different industries and sectors his examples were a common ground. It was handled very well virtually and the engagement worked with his questioning and answering
