Creating a Thriving Workplace: A conversation about the successes and challen...CICoEPilot
The CI CoE Pilot and CI4Resilience project is are hosting a one-day workshop on June 29 for NSF Major Facilities (MFs), on creating a thriving workplace. At the 2019 NSF Workshop on Connecting Large Facilities and Cyberinfrastructure, participants working in MFs described needs and challenges with building and developing staff that we had not heard discussed by those working in more mainstream academic research institutions. To explore this further, the Pilot conducted a series of interviews with managers at MFs to learn more about their experiences with hiring, retention, training and mentoring, work culture, rewards and recognition, and loss of personnel. From these interviews we learned more about how MFs grow and develop their staff, what aspects of their staffing situations appear to be unique to working in an MF, and what aspects tend to resemble more typical academic research institutions. To continue to fulfill our mission of supporting and fostering the work of MFs, we are hosting this workshop to provide a forum for discussion and idea-sharing around professional development issues specific to MFs.

The South West Hub Project: Developing a project in unconventional geologyGlobal CCS Institute
The WA Department of Mines and Petroleum (DMP) has been investigating the Lesueur Formation on-shore South West of Western Australia.
The South West Hub project has been acquiring field data between 2011 and 2015 involving 2D and 3D seismic and four wells. The third generation of modelling has just been concluded.
This webinar provided an opportunity to understand how a project goes about establishing confidence in storage based on migration assisted trapping (MAT) in unconfined saline aquifers. The injection reservoir is heterogeneous and over 1,500 m thick with varying permeability layers that should support residual and solubility trapping for primary containment.
To assist the understanding of the challenges faced in characterising this ’unconventional’ play, Dominique Van Gent, the Coordinator of Carbon Strategy in the Department of Mines and Petroleum, and Sandeep Sharma, the Technical Advisor to the project, presented on the findings including:
- Data Acquisition
- Static modelling
- The results of dynamic modelling
- Challenges for the future
