Presentation Notes

Welcome all My role in GA is a Divisional Information Officer for PMD


What I will be discussing today:

• What the CCS community would like to achieve

• Current situation

• Overview of approach PMD has taken

• Geoscience Australia examples

• The next steps ahead

Presenter

Presentation Notes

Not a technical talk


What we would like to achieve?A consolidated and collaborative approach to data and information within the CCS

community.

CO2CRC

International Australian

Participation

Onshore State Initiatives

IndustryOffshore CCS

CS Taskforce

GovernmentCommunity

A systematic approach to manage any resource conflict between CCS and for example hydrocarbons oil and gas, geothermal and

groundwater.

Presenter

Presentation Notes

Currently disparate agencies, institutes, initiatives Working within a silo’d approach We need a: A consolidated approach with the way we manage the resource conflict We all need to come together and work in a cordinated and structured approach


What we would like to achieve?

The point of truth would be corrected if an error is found for everyone that follows

You can combine various kind of data, stored at different places and in different formats and visualise them in your web browser or internal software tools.You can even QUERY them the same way and download the part you want!

Increasing need for richer content, personalised tools and better filtering

Presentation Notes

Updating data (custodianship) will have the flow on effect to all other users of this data, no matter where they are accessing it.

Current Situation (1)…data access is not standardised across organisations

Current Situation - Data Discovery

I need reservoir seal integrity data. Who has it and how can I access it?

Over here!!!

The constant need to consume data and reduce costs


You have to keep and maintain versions of someone else’s data, and you don’t know if it’s correct or outdated?

You know there’s useful information out there, but you cannot find it?

You waste valuable time downloading and converting datasets? – with an assumption on its history, quality and what the data really means.

You can see the data you want on a web map but you can’t download the real data for analysis?

We downsize our science to match what we can handle – which is increasingly not what we need

Plus a constant need to connect ‘my tools to your content’

Current Situation – Side Effects


Overview of the approach PMD has taken

• It’s about communication and a willingness for change – Not an IT issue• Analyse scientific workflow first!• Define data requirements• Analyse dataset attributes• Identify areas of change

• Recognise leading agency • Implement new system


Geoscience Australia Example

• In collaboration with the CO2CRC• Define a national systematic approach in the way CCS data is stored, discovered and delivered

What we learnt:• The CCS community is reliant on other science industries to supply and support the data needed to deliver CCS outcomes i.e. Petroleum, Geothermal & groundwater

• Associated attributes (spatial and a-spatial)

• Output purpose

• Applications used

• Database/system retrieved

• Data location/s (including primary and other)

• How was the data retrieved?

• Data size

• Primary data owner

• Data standards used (if any)

• Comments

• Strategies for change

Additionally we analysed:MICP analysis, sonic, seam gas

What we end up with:


Added bonuses that could benefit:

• Strategy Map for CCS(A start at least)

• Scenario modelling• Workflow• Workforce• Clients• Technology• Data

• Initial tactical changes to business workflows


So what was the outcome? (1)

• By defining the science workflow first we now have a good basis in knowing how, what and why the data should be discovered and delivered

• Dispersed group of agencies will need to maintain their own primary data

• The CCS community is reliant on the Petroleum, geothermal & groundwater disciplines to supply and maintain the data needed to deliver CCS outcomes

• One system to store, manage and deliver data is not the solution – A distributed system is required


So what was the outcome? (2)

• Not all agencies have the infrastructure to support their own needs, let alone at a national scale

• There will be a requirement for more involvement (in the long run) from the scientific community rather than IT professionals

• Phased approach - Discoverability is key to the first phase

• A data standards approach is required

• A lead agency is required to support the CCS community at a national scale

The next steps ahead

Geoscience Australia has a new strategy in place to ensure the discoverability and delivery of all its data, no matter what the discipline. With this, GA will continue its role:

• As the national agency to support the CCS community at a national scale with regard to data discovery and delivery.

And

• To deliver (where possible) as much scientific data to the industry and communities i.e. petroleum, groundwater, geothermal etc• To support the communities with data standards and principles for data discoverability
