Ulrike is the Chevron Senior Research Fellow in Carbon Storage Science and workgroup lead for subsurface gas storage. She has an extensive expertise in the geochemical aspects of subsurface gas storage, with 15+ years of experience in conducting laboratory and field-scale investigations into (gas-)water-rock interaction processes. Her contributions in this field of expertise include a detailed understanding of how these processes can impact on the storage and sealing capacity of reservoir rocks and seals, the impacts of leakage on near subsurface environments such as fresh water aquifers, as well as the development and implementation of assurance monitoring programs for CO2 storage sites.
Since 2020 she has been applying her expertise to the newly emerging field of underground hydrogen storage (UHS). In this field her main focus is on the geochemical impact of UHS on the deeper sitting porous formations of Australian sedimentary basins, and thus the feasibility assessment of UHS in Australia (and elsewhere).
