Geoengineering of Hydrogen Energy dispenses fundamental knowledge on hydrogen geostorage paired with recent advances to form a cohesive resource designed to further understanding of a topic essential to the energy transition. The energy sector is undergoing a fast-paced shift towards cleaner energy sources to achieve set net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. Hydrogen underground storage can be used as an energy carrier to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and facilitate the energy transition towards net-zero. This book distils basics including hydrogen resources and characteristics, relevant concepts and theories, hydrogen geostorage fundamentals and hydrodynamics, basic biotic and abiotic reactions, geo-mechanical properties and sealing efficiency of different rock strata, then progresses to assess hydrogen transportation and storage challenges and geostorage implications, evaluates economic feasibility, environmental and social impacts, and offers insights to pave the road for successful hydrogen storage. Drawing from a synthesis of contemporary global laboratory investigations, modelling approaches and breakthroughs, pilots, case studies and hydrogen storage projects, this unified volume collects, filters and summarizes developments to deliver a comprehensive resource in this fast-growing field. Led by an accoladed engineering expert with over 40 years of combined industrial and academic experience, this book fills the knowledge gap of currently fragmented literature to connect this valuable aspect of hydrogen energy to the full-scale energy transition scope. Throughout, it considers critical questions of viability and sustainability with a goal of increasing understanding of fundamentals and furthering applications of hydrogen subsurface storage. Geoengineering of Hydrogen Energy meets the diverse needs of academia and industry by providing a combination of hydrogen subsurface storage basics, advances and applications, making it suitable for university students interested in energy, environmental and industrial disciplines and relevant to energy engineering researchers, and practicing energy engineers.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
Dr. Hadi A. Belhaj is a petroleum engineering faculty member at Khalifa University (KU) teaching a variety of graduate and undergraduate courses ranging from reservoir engineering to unconventional reservoir characterization and modeling to drilling engineering to petroleum economics and risk analysis to hydrogen resourcing, storage, and recovery to CCS. Dr. Belhaj has over 40 years of combined industrial and academic experience with key qualifications and research achievements in reservoir engineering, reservoir simulation, modeling fractured reservoirs, EOR, reservoir stimulation, sand production, unconventional reservoirs, and decarbonized fossil fuels. Geographically, his experience spreads over North America, Europe, North Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. Prior to KU/PI merging, Dr. Belhaj was engaged with the Petroleum Institute, Texas Tech University, and Dalhousie University, respectively. From 1982 until 2000, Dr. Belhaj worked with Schlumberger and the Libyan National Oil Corporation (LNOC), respectively. Dr. Belhaj is a Distinguished Member of the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE). For his unwavering 40-year-long-continued outstanding services with passion, commitment, and dedication to the SPE and its members at all levels, the SPE honoured Dr. Belhaj with the 2021 SPE Distinguished Service Award. He is also is the recipient of 2013/2020 SPE Regional Distinguished Achievement for Petroleum Engineering Faculty Award and the 2019 SPE Regional Reservoir Description and Dynamics Award. Dr. Belhaj is currently a member of the JPT Editorial Committee and SPE-ATCE Technical Program Subcommittee and has served on numerous other SPE and none SPE educational, research, and judging-related committees as well as conference, workshop, forum programming, and organizing committees. Dr. Belhaj has contributed several consortium research proposals dealing with petroleum and energy exploitation challenges generating more than 17 million dollars of research grants. He has published more than 150-refereed journal and conference articles. Dr. Belhaj is a member of other professional societies and organizations around the globe; the Society of Special Core Analysts (SCA), the International Society for Porous Media, and the OMAE-ASME are among them. Dr. Belhaj currently serves as the Associate Editor for the Springer Journal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology Journal and the Taylor & Francis Petroleum Science and Technology Journal. Dr. Belhaj earned a PhD from Dalhousie University, Canada, an MSc from the Technical University of Nova Scotia, Canada, and a BSc. from the University of Tripoli, Libya.
