Where carbon storage gets its ground truth.
Four days with the geoscientists, engineers, and operators putting CCUS into the subsurface, monitoring design, core analysis, and the data infrastructure behind every injection zone. If carbon management is your work, this is where your peers will be.

Figures from the 2025 Carbon Management Pavilion.
Carbon management, front and center.
This year, we have a dedicated pavilion inside IMAGE '26, built around the exact problems your team is solving right now: how to monitor a storage site, trust your core data, and manage the subsurface estate at scale.
See what's actually working in the field
DAS, fiber, and passive seismic sessions from teams running live CO 2 storage and injection monitoring today — not vendor theory.
Fix the subsurface data problem
Sessions on managing the modern subsurface estate and standardizing seismic data formats for carbon capture and storage workflows.
Get ground truth from the core
NMR and hydrocarbon-method core characterization for injection targets — plus a live core viewing session on the floor.

Your subsurface community will be in Houston.
Panels moderated by the Railroad Commission of Texas, Oxy, and UT Austin's Bureau of Economic Geology. Presenters from operators, service companies, and the labs doing the core work. These are the people you cite, the people you compete with, and the people who'll answer your hardest storage-monitoring question in the hallway — not just on stage.
