Bayesian Inversion Of Generative Models For Geologic Storage Of Carbon Dioxide
share
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) can aid decarbonization of the atmosphere to limit further global temperature increases. A framework utilizing unsupervised learning is used to generate a range of subsurface geologic volumes to investigate potential sites for long-term storage of carbon dioxide. Generative adversarial networks are used to create geologic volumes, with a further neural network used to sample the posterior distribution of a trained Generator conditional to sparsely sampled physical measurements. These generative models are further conditioned to historic dynamic fluid flow data through Bayesian inversion to improve the resolution of the forecast of the storage capacity of injected carbon dioxide.
