	title = {A Digital Twin for Geological Carbon Storage with Controlled Injectivity},
	year = {2024},
	month = {11},
	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.},

	abstract = {Based on the latest data-assimilation and machine-learning techniques, Digital Twins (DTs) have shown promise for high-fidelity monitoring and control of underground CO2​ storage. While the use of these techniques have important advantages, they do rely on certain assumptions. If these assumptions are not met, the DT{\textquoteright}s neural networks may no longer infer the state of the CO2 plume (pressure/saturation) accurately. By augmenting the forecast ensemble, we address this issue.},

	year = {2024},
	month = {11},
	abstract = {This study explores the application of a diffusion partial differential equation (PDE) model for reservoir simulation, particularly aimed at reconstructing permeability and saturation fields within a saline aquifer. Focusing on pairs of input permeability and output saturation, the model is trained to capture the underlying dynamics governing fluid flow in porous media. Post-training, the model is capable of inferring or recovering the complete permeability and saturation distributions when provided with limited vertical pixel data of permeability and saturation. This approach offers a novel pathway for enhancing the resolution of subsurface characteristics, contributing to more accurate predictions in reservoir engineering and carbon storage simulations.},
