About this Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) This 5 half-day Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) course covers carbon capture and geological storage of carbon dioxide. Burning fossil fuels for energy is a major source of carbon dioxide emissions to the atmosphere. Most anthropogenic (man-made) carbon dioxide is emitted by coal-fired or gas-fired power plants, and significant quantities of carbon dioxide are emitted through the production and separation of carbon dioxide-rich natural gas and industries such as cement, iron and steel. Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage, or CCUS, involves the long-term storage of captured carbon dioxide emissions in subsurface geologic formations. This VILT course covers all aspects of CCUS including transport, storage and monitoring, economics and community engagement. It explores in detail the challenges of the current technology of geological storage, monitoring and verification including examples from working projects around the world. Many of these technologies are commonly employed by the petroleum industry. Successful deployment of CCUS will also require economic incentives, appropriate regulation, clarity on liability issues and acceptance by the community. These aspects of CCUS, and the corresponding opportunities for appropriately skilled organisations and individuals also will be discussed. Course Content at a Glance Context for CCS/CCUS as An Emissions-reduction Measure Principles of Geological Storage Finding Geological Storage Sites Stationary Sources of Carbon Dioxide for Capture Carbon Dioxide Capture Technologies Compression and Transport of Carbon Dioxide Economics of CCS/CCUS Community, Safety, Legal & Regulatory Issues Risk Assessment Training Objectives Upon completion of this VILT course, participants will be able to: Identify the need for Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Outline the key steps in the Carbon Capture and Storage process Distinguish between reservoir rocks and sealing rocks Describe the importance of permeability and porosity to storing carbon dioxide Contrast the geological structures and trapping mechanisms for storing carbon dioxide Describe the changes in geologically stored carbon dioxide over time Outline the monitoring techniques employed to ensure the carbon dioxide is safely stored Appreciate the industrial applications of carbon dioxide capture Recognize the scale of industry required for transporting and storing carbon dioxide Describe economic considerations for CCS/CCUS Outline the economic and environmental opportunities and challenges with using carbon dioxide injection in a range of applications Explain the challenges of regulatory frameworks and public acceptance in a CCS/CCUS project Identify potential risks of a CCS/CCUS project Outline the risk assessment and management process Target Audience This VILT course is ideally suited for a technical audience - geoscientists, petroleum and chemical engineers - as well as for economists, regulators, legal staff and managers wishing to learn more about the details of both the technical, regulatory and socio-economic aspects of carbon capture and storage. Participants should have: Experience with oil and gas, coal or other energy projects Basic understanding of the energy industry Course Level Intermediate Trainer Your first expert course leader spent 18 years in the Petroleum Industry before joining academia, in both technical and managerial roles with Shell, Arco and Vico. He has received numerous awards, including Distinguished Service, Honorary member and Special Commendation awards from the American Association of Petroleum Geologist (AAPG) and was AAPG's International Vice-President and recently chairman of AAPG's House of Delegates (the Associations Parliamentary body). He is an SPE Distinguished Lecturer (DL) and has served as DL for several other professional organisations, including, AAPG, IPA and PESA. He is currently a Professor of Petroleum Geology and Engineering at the Australian School of Petroleum, University of Adelaide. He holds the South Australia State Chair in Carbon Capture & Storage (CCS) and is also presently Distinguished Scientist of the Cooperative Research Centre for Greenhouse Gas Technologies (CO2CRC), having served earlier as the Storage Program Manager and Chief Scientist. Your second expert course leader has a wide and deep knowledge of major capture technologies: solvent, membrane and adsorption based technologies and has developed pathways for retrofitting CO2 capture and storage (CCS) to fossil fuel-based power plants. He has been actively engaged in Post-combustion capture project management and demonstration projects in Victoria's Latrobe Valley on CO2 capture and hydrogen production, and on CO2 capture using membrane contactor technology. He has led various feasibility studies for the Asian Development Bank on CO2 Capture at Indian Oil Corporation's refineries, for JPOWER on hydrogen production from Victorian brown coal and for Kawasaki on incorporation of CCS in hydrogen production from fossil fuel. He has authored multiple peer reviewed journal articles, co-authored various confidential reports on CO2 capture, utilization and hydrogen production and utility, and has presented his work at various conferences, symposiums and seminars. He has a PhD in Chemical Engineering from Monash University Australia and a Master of Technology in Process Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology Delhi India.     POST TRAINING COACHING SUPPORT (OPTIONAL) To further optimise your learning experience from our courses, we also offer individualized 'One to One' coaching support for 2 hours post training.

Join a Climate Fresk Climate science workshop to learn about the causes and effects of climate change through a fun and collaborative experience.

Change Management Foundation: In-House Training: In-House Training This course provides practical knowledge on Change Management techniques and the Foundation certification. You will examine various Change Management techniques and explore which could be effectively implemented in your organization. The structured approach helps you understand how you deal with change as an individual, as a member of a team or organization, and as a leader. The program design explores the impact that change has on these four major areas: Change and the Individual Change and the Organization Communications and Stakeholder Engagement Change Management Practice This course also prepares you for the APMG Change Management Foundation exam. Given that a primary course goal is to achieve the Foundation Certification, the course text will be provided in advance of the workshop so the participant may begin studying. In addition, daily homework assignments and practice exams will be provided. The Foundation-level exam is taken at the end of the third day of the Traditional Classroom course. Virtual Classroom participants must make separate arrangements to schedule their exam following course completion (See 'Important Note for Virtual Course Participants'). What You Will Learn You'll learn how to: Explain how individuals learn and why many may resist change Illustrate how to build an effective change team Describe the stakeholder engagement process and relate this to appropriate communication Differentiate various approaches to plan, implement, and sustain organizational change Demonstrate how to assess change impact and readiness, and deal with resistance Improve your ability to pass the APMG Change Management Foundation Certification exam Getting Started Introductions Course structure Course goals and objectives Change and the Individual How people learn Personality and change - introduction to MBTI Models of individual change - the Change Curve and Bridges' Transition Motivating individuals during change Change and the Organization Understanding organizational metaphors Organizational culture and change 3 models of change - Lewin, Kotter, and Senge Key roles in change Stakeholder Engagement Identifying and analyzing stakeholders Personas and empathy maps Influencing strategies Communication Feedback and communication approaches Communicating change - planning, factors, and barriers Communication biases and channels Change Impact Identifying and assessing change impact Stakeholder impact assessment Change severity assessment Change Readiness Building change agent networks and the change team How to make the organization ready for change Creating a change management plan Dealing with resistance to change APMG Change Management Foundation Exam Preparation Review of and practice with APMG sample questions and test papers APMG Change Management Foundation Exam Traditional Classroom: Paper-based exams will be taken on the last day of class Virtual Classroom: The exam is scheduled by the Participant and taken subsequent to the course
