	abstract = {We present a new framework for Digital Twins (DTs) that supports uncertainty-aware monitoring, optimization, and risk management of underground storage operations, with a particular focus on Geological Carbon Storage (GCS) and Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR). The proposed DT addresses key challenges in reservoir characterization, surveillance, and management by integrating generative AI methods with simulation-based inference, enabling scalable, probabilistic decision support under uncertainty. Our approach combines sensitivity-aware amortized Bayesian inference (SA-ABI) with ensemble-based data assimilation to efficiently incorporate multimodal time-lapse observations, such as seismic and well data, into dynamic reservoir models. By embedding context-awareness into neural networks, we account for variability in rock-physics relationships linking pressure, saturation, and seismic responses, and quantify uncertainties arising from model misspecifications{\textendash}-e.g. usage of patchy versus uniform saturation models. Computational efficiency is maintained through weight sharing across the network trained on different rock-physics scenarios, enabling rapid evaluation of the impact changing the underlying rock-physics model. The DT is built on industry-strength open-source software: {\textquoteleft}JutulDarcy.jl{\textquoteleft} for fully coupled multiphase flow simulations and {\textquoteleft}JUDI.jl{\textquoteleft}, a seismic inversion package leveraging the {\textquoteleft}Devito{\textquoteleft} finite-difference framework. This computational foundation allows scalable integration of physics-based simulations and data assimilation across large reservoir models, while retaining flexibility to adapt to varying physical contexts such as the inclusion of pressure-dependence of the compressional wavespeed. The resulting DT not only delivers posterior distributions for the reservoir{\textquoteright}s state (pressure/saturation) conditioned on available observations but also enables rapid {\textquotedblleft}what-if{\textquotedblright} scenario analysis by drawing posterior samples across a range of physical contexts without retraining. This capability supports proactive storage management, optimization of injection operations, and improved assurance of storage conformance.},

	booktitle = {ML4SEISMIC Partners Meeting},
	year = {2025},
	month = {11},
	abstract = {Digital shadows for subsurface monitoring rely on simulation-based inference to map seismic observations to evolving reservoir states. However, when the simulations are generated using simplified or different rock physics models than those governing the observed data, model misspecification leads to biased posterior estimates and degraded uncertainty quantification. We address this challenge through Bayesian frameworks including rock-physics marginalization and a context-aware amortized inference using conditional normalizing flows. The framework learns a mapping from seismic responses to pressure and saturation while accounting for variability across different randomly drawn models for the rock-physics. To enhance sensitivity to fluid and stress effects, we also incorporate pressure-dependent rock physics into the seismic forward model and perform inference in the Radon domain of Common Image Gathers (CIGs) instead of conventional RTM images. Because fluids exhibit distinct angle-dependent signatures in AVA responses, Radon-transformed CIGs are expected to provide improved separation between pressure and saturation effects, leading to more accurate and physically consistent state estimates. Thus, it enables an uncertainty-aware, physics-informed digital shadows under rock-physics model mismatch.},
