WISER leverages the power of generative artificial intelligence to perform approximate amortized inference that is low-cost albeit showing an amortization gap. This gap is closed through non-amortized refinements that make frugal use of acoustic wave physics. Case studies illustrate that WISER is capable of full-resolution, computationally feasible, and reliable uncertainty estimates of velocity models and imaged reflectivities.},

	abstract = {We present an uncertainty-aware Digital Twin (DT) for geologic carbon storage (GCS), capable of handling multimodal time-lapse data and controlling CO 2  injectivity to mitigate reservoir fracturing risks. In GCS, DT represents virtual replicas of subsurface systems that incorporate real-time data and advanced generative Artificial Intelligence (genAI) techniques, including neural posterior density estimation via simulation-based inference and sequential Bayesian inference. These methods enable the effective monitoring and control of CO 2  storage projects, addressing challenges such as subsurface complexity, operational optimization, and risk mitigation. By integrating diverse monitoring data, e.g., geophysical well observations and imaged seismic, DT can bridge the gaps between seemingly distinct fields like geophysics and reservoir engineering. In addition, the recent advancements in genAI also facilitate DT with principled uncertainty quantification. Through recursive training and inference, DT utilizes simulated current state samples, e.g., CO 2  saturation, paired with corresponding geophysical field observations to train its neural networks and enable posterior sampling upon receiving new field data. However, it lacks decision-making and control capabilities, which is necessary for full DT functionality. This study aims to demonstrate how DT can inform decision-making processes to prevent risks such as cap rock fracturing during CO 2  storage operations.},

While common image gathers effectively retain critical information even when initial velocity estimates are inaccurate, WISE{\textquoteright}s performance still depends on the assumption that the initial migration-velocity model is a single 1D velocity model. In this work, we present experiments using both 1D and 2D velocity models and develop a stochastic resampling method to generate variations of initial migration-velocity models. This technique allows us to systematically infer alternative velocity models that are consistent with the observed data, while enhancing the posterior sample quality and reducing dependency on the initial velocity model compared to the standard WISE approach.},

While previous approaches that develop deep neural networks demonstrate promising automatic leakage detection and potential cost reduction in dataset collection from time-lapse seismic images, they face challenges, such as a limited ability to reduce false alarms in CO 2  leakage instances and a lack of uncertainty analysis in detection results. This paper introduced a framework aimed at enhancing the deep neural network model{\textquoteright}s ability to detect GCS leakage risk through a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM)-based ensemble algorithm. The proposed method can improve the detection ability of leakage cases while accurately distinguishing them from non-leakage instances. Furthermore, the proposed uncertainty analysis method utilizing Monte Carlo (MC) dropout technique efficiently identifies misclassified non-leakage cases and categorizes them as undetermined for further investigation. This comprehensive approach enhances both the reliability and performance of the model in detecting GCS leakage risks.},

Traditional characterization methods such as Full-Waveform Inversion (FWI) represent powerful tools but often struggle with the inherent complexities of the inverse problem, including noise, limited bandwidth and aperture of data, limited azimuth and computational constraints. To address these challenges, we propose a scalable methodology that integrates generative modeling with physics-informed summary statistics, making it suitable for complicated imaging problems potentially including field datasets. Our approach leverages the power of conditional diffusion networks, and methodologically incorporates physics in the form of summary statistics, allowing for the computationally efficient generation of Bayesian posterior samples that offer an useful assessment of uncertainty of the inferred migration-velocity models. To validate our approach, we introduce a battery of tests that measure the quality of the image estimates as well as the quality of the inferred uncertainties. With modern synthetic datasets, we maximally leverage the advantages of using subsurface-offset Common Image Gathers (CIGs) as the conditioning observable. Next, we tackle the challenging SEAM salt model that requires incorporating salt flooding into our approach based on the iterative refinements of ASPIRE {\textemdash} Amortized posteriors with Summaries that are Physics-based and Iteratively REfined.},

Following the velocity-continuation scheme of Siahkoohi, Louboutin, and Herrmann (2022), we train a survey-specific FNO to map the CIGs associated with one migration-velocity model to another without remigration. This methodology leverages the capacity of FNOs to approximate complex PDE-based mappings, rendering computational cost at inference negligible, thereby expediting MVA. By enabling rapid generation and evaluation of CIGs across various velocity models, it offers a pathway to quickly examine velocity models according to preferred properties and to quantify uncertainties in imaged reflectivities at the same time. Additionally, this methodology paves the way for inverse design optimization, updating velocity models to produce CIGs with desirable characteristics.},

	abstract = {Time-lapse seismic monitoring of carbon storage and sequestration is often challenging because the time-lapse signature of the growth of CO$_2$ plumes is weak in amplitude and therefore difficult to detect seismically. This situation is compounded by the fact that the surveys are often coarsely sampled and not replicated to reduce costs. As a result, images obtained for different vintages (baseline and monitor surveys) often contain artifacts that may be attributed wrongly to time-lapse changes. To address these issues, we propose to invert the baseline and monitor surveys jointly. By using the joint recovery model, we exploit information shared between multiple time-lapse surveys. Contrary to other time-lapse methods, our approach does not rely on replicating the surveys to detect time-lapse changes. To illustrate this advantage, we present a numerical sensitivity study where CO$_2$ is injected in a realistic synthetic model. This model is representative of the geology in the southeast of the North Sea, an area currently considered for carbon sequestration. Our example demonstrates that the joint recovery model improves the quality of time-lapse images allowing us to monitor the CO$_2$ plume seismically.},

	abstract = {Time-lapse seismic monitoring of CO2 sequestration is challenging because the time-lapse signature of CO2 plumes is weak in amplitude and often contaminated by imaging artifacts due to coarsely sampled, noisy, and non-replicated surveys. In this talk, we present a sparsity-promoting least-squares imaging method where the baseline, and the current and past monitor surveys are inverted jointly. We demonstrate that the sensitivity of seismic monitoring can be improved by inverting for the common component{\textemdash}i.e., the component shared by all vintages, and innovations with respect to this common component. Combining this joint approach with weighted l1,2-norm minimization leads to a monitoring scheme capable of detecting irregular CO2-plume growth in a realistic geological setting.},
