Currently working on:
- Diagenesis controlled by folds and faults in orogenic and rifting systems: implications in geothermal resources and CO2 storage.
- Analysis of sedimentology, fracturing and cementation in captured CO2 reservoir analogues.
- Studies of the CO2 storage capacity according to the emissions and properties of the reservoirs, both globally and regionally.
- Creation of databases of potential geological reservoirs in sedimentary rocks for Geo-Energy applications (captured CO2, hydrogen, compressed air, etc.).
- Systematic relationships between the depositional and diagenetic characteristics of sedimentary rocks and their petrophysical properties (structural, thermal and acoustic).
- Analysis of the influence of diagenetic processes on the sealing capacity of cap rocks.
- Studies of mechanical stratigraphy and fluid circulation through fracture zones in carbonate, siliciclastic and evaporite rocks.
- Prediction of controls on the distribution of critical elements (e.g., Lithium) in sedimentary rocks.
- Study of geothermal reservoir analogues.
