From data to decision: Fast-tracking CO₂ storage site selection

May 07, 2025
Baker Hughes
As carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects ramp up worldwide, one of the biggest early-stage challenges remains: identifying viable storage sites with confidence, speed, and clarity. Most current solutions fall short—fragmented data, limited subsurface insight, and uncertainty in economic viability slow down the decision-making process, especially for industrial players who lack in-house geoscience expertise. In this webinar, we’ll explore a new, integrated approach that combines decades of global subsurface data with advanced analytics to deliver reliable, actionable insights for CO₂ storage screening. Tailored especially for depleted gas fields—known for their superior storage efficiency—this workflow fills a critical gap in the market by enabling faster, better-informed decisions on where to store CO₂ and whether it’s worth the investment. Join us as we unpack how this solution reduces time-to-development and brings together geological, geophysical, and economic factors into a single, streamlined view—built for those who need confidence from day one.

Best Practices to Improve Design and Operations of Sulfur Recovery Units with Aspen HYSYS®

May 14, 2025
AspenTech
Sulfur recovery units (SRUs) are critical to process plants to ensure product quality and meet environmental regulations. However, SRUs present challenges with limited performance insights due to unpredictable catalyst degradation and feed composition-dependent optimization. Additionally, varied plant configurations and rapidly evolving technology add to the complexity. Join SGS Sulphur Experts to learn how Aspen HYSYS® process simulation—powered by Sulsim Sulfur Recovery™ technology—enables you to: • Avoid upsets and compliance failure • Maximize sulfur recovery • Prevent catalyst deactivation • Minimize incinerator fuel use A Q&A session will follow the presentation.
