Workshop
Modeling and risk assessment of geological storage of CO2
   
Program:

CO2-free Svalbard

All lectures are by invitation only. However, all participants are encouraged to contribute to the
poster session. We also encouraged participants to contribute to midnight circus. Time will be allocated so that every poster presenter is given 5-10 minutes to introduce his/her poster in plenary.
