CO2-plume geothermal: Power net generation from 3D fluvial aquifers (2022)
Journal Article
Norouzi, A. M., Pouranian, F., Rabbani, A., Fowler, N., Gluyas, J., Niasar, V., …Babaei, M. (2023). CO2-plume geothermal: Power net generation from 3D fluvial aquifers. Applied Energy, 332, Article 120546. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2022.120546

Previously CO2, as a heat-extraction fluid, has been proposed as a superior substitute for brine in geothermal energy extraction. Hence, the new concept of CO2-plume geothermal (CPG) is suggested to generate heat from geothermal aquifers using CO2 as...

Analytical Solution for Predicting Salt Precipitation During CO2 Injection Into Saline Aquifers in Presence of Capillary Pressure (2022)
Journal Article
Norouzi, A., Niasar, V., Gluyas, J., & Babaei, M. (2022). Analytical Solution for Predicting Salt Precipitation During CO2 Injection Into Saline Aquifers in Presence of Capillary Pressure. Water Resources Research, 58(6), https://doi.org/10.1029/2022wr032612

Salt precipitation within pores of the reservoir is an important phenomenon occurring during CO2 injection into saline aquifers. The phenomenon results in permeability reduction and injectivity impairment. Salt precipitation mainly happens because of...

Petrographic and diagenetic investigation of the distal Triassic ‘Budleighensis’ fluvial system in the Solway and Carlisle Basins for potential CO2 storage (2022)
Journal Article
Marsh, J., Jones, S., Meadows, N., & Gluyas, J. (2022). Petrographic and diagenetic investigation of the distal Triassic ‘Budleighensis’ fluvial system in the Solway and Carlisle Basins for potential CO2 storage. Petroleum Geoscience, 28(3), 2021- 2065. https://doi.org/10.1144/petgeo2021-065

Failure to find hydrocarbon prospects in the Solway Basin region has resulted in a lack of research into the local Sherwood Sandstone Group petrography, reservoir quality and depositional history compared to the analogous southern reservoirs in the E...

The following study considers the spatial distribution, grade and seasonal variation of waste-heat from industrial sectors in the United Kingdom in 2018. Opportunities to offset the emissions caused by heat generation through the use of waste-heat re... Read More about Waste heat mapping: A UK study.

The Principles of Helium Exploration (2022)
Journal Article
Danabalan, D., Gluyas, J. G., Macpherson, C. G., Abraham-James, T. H., Bluett, J. J., Barry, P. H., & Ballentine, C. J. (2022). The Principles of Helium Exploration. Petroleum Geoscience, 28(2), petgeo2021-029. https://doi.org/10.1144/petgeo2021-029

Commercial helium systems have been found to date as a serendipitous by-product of petroleum exploration. There are nevertheless significant differences in the source and migration properties of helium compared with petroleum. An understanding of the...
