Introducing the Geopark

  • Post category:News

Merlin has posted a number of times about its sponsorship of the Abberley and Malvern Hills Geopark, but we have never fully introduced it. This blog aims to correct that oversight and introduce you to a scenic part of the country that we are lucky enough to have on our doorstep. Continue reading to find out more.

The fluid dynamics of CO₂ differ significantly from those of hydrocarbons due to variations in density, viscosity, and phase behaviour. A nuanced understanding of CO₂ flow physics is imperative for effective modelling and prediction. Continue reading our latest blog to find out more.

Knowledge gathered from decades of hydrocarbon exploration is vital to help us with our efforts in Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS). However, despite many parallels, there is a significant difference between natural migration of hydrocarbons and the flow of injected CO₂ underground. Robust modelling and simulation of CO₂ plumes is therefore required to fully understand fluid movements to ensure the safe and efficient storage of CO₂. This article looks at these similarities and differences and what it all means for the advancement of CCS going forward.
