Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Composite material
  • Groundwater

Her primary scientific interests are in Carbon sequestration, Aquifer, Groundwater, Petroleum engineering and Mineralogy. She combines subjects such as Hydrology, Permeability, Soil science and Enhanced oil recovery with her study of Carbon sequestration. In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Groundwater, Carbonate minerals is strongly linked to Environmental chemistry.

Susan D. Hovorka has researched Petroleum engineering in several fields, including Fossil fuel and Greenhouse gas. The Mineralogy study combines topics in areas such as Plume and Injection well. Her Geochemical modeling research also works with subjects such as

  • Sedimentary rock, which have a strong connection to Oil shale,
  • Dissolved organic carbon, which have a strong connection to Residual oil.

Her most cited work include:

  • Gas-water-rock interactions in Frio Formation following CO2 injection: Implications for the storage of greenhouse gases in sedimentary basins (386 citations)
  • Measuring permanence of CO2 storage in saline formations: the Frio experiment (240 citations)
  • Potential environmental issues of CO2 storage in deep saline aquifers: Geochemical results from the Frio-I Brine Pilot test, Texas, USA (187 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Susan D. Hovorka mostly deals with Petroleum engineering, Carbon sequestration, Aquifer, Geochemistry and Groundwater. Her studies deal with areas such as Fossil fuel, Plume and Greenhouse gas as well as Petroleum engineering. Her Carbon sequestration study combines topics in areas such as Hydrology, Soil science and Borehole.

Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Sedimentary depositional environment and Mineralogy. Her work on Geochemical modeling as part of general Groundwater study is frequently linked to Alkalinity, bridging the gap between disciplines. Her Evaporite research incorporates themes from Halite and Anhydrite.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Petroleum engineering (22.31%)
  • Carbon sequestration (20.72%)
  • Aquifer (15.94%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Petroleum engineering (22.31%)
  • Carbon sequestration (20.72%)
  • Enhanced oil recovery (10.76%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Her main research concerns Petroleum engineering, Carbon sequestration, Enhanced oil recovery, Greenhouse gas and Soil science. A large part of her Petroleum engineering studies is devoted to Residual oil. Susan D. Hovorka integrates many fields, such as Carbon sequestration and Leakage, in her works.

Her Enhanced oil recovery study deals with Fluid dynamics intersecting with Reservoir modeling. Her Greenhouse gas research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Waste management, Fossil fuel, Oil field and Carbon capture and storage. Her Soil science study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cabin pressurization, Aquifer and Permeability.

Between 2014 and 2020, her most popular works were:

  • The state of the art in monitoring and verification—Ten years on (111 citations)
  • Simulating the Cranfield geological carbon sequestration project with high-resolution static models and an accurate equation of state. (56 citations)
  • A harmonic pulse testing method for leakage detection in deep subsurface storage formations (38 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Composite material
  • Anisotropy

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Enhanced oil recovery, Soil science, Carbon sequestration, Fossil fuel and Submarine pipeline. Her Enhanced oil recovery study incorporates themes from Overburden and Mineralogy. The study incorporates disciplines such as Plume, Capillary action, Aquifer and Fluvial in addition to Soil science.

Her Aquifer research includes themes of Water quality, Water well and Hydraulic head. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Soil water, Soil respiration and Permeability. Susan D. Hovorka interconnects Saline aquifer, Nuclear decommissioning, Co2 storage and Scope in the investigation of issues within Fossil fuel.
