Hydrogen Advisory Services
Natural hydrogen, sometimes referred to as “gold hydrogen,” is an emerging and exciting field with significant potential to play a key role in the future energy landscape. Simco's expertise can help clients identify and assess naturally occurring hydrogen reservoirs, utilising exploration techniques developed over decades in the hydrocarbons industry. These include subsurface mapping, structural interpretation, and reservoir modelling.
Simco Energy Management has partnered with NHSG Consultants, whose team brings long-standing experience in conventional oil and gas exploration to this rapidly evolving sector. The parallels between hydrogen and hydrocarbons—in terms of reservoir geology, migration pathways, and structural traps—mean that geologists with traditional energy experience are uniquely well-placed to lead the search for natural hydrogen.
Natural hydrogen represents a major opportunity in clean energy and we support projects from initial concept through to exploration and development. Our combined expertise offers clients robust, science-driven guidance in this exciting new frontier.
Geothermal Advisory Services
Geothermal energy offers a promising solution to the world’s growing energy needs by providing clean, baseload power with a minimal surface footprint. Geologists are uniquely positioned to lead in this space, bringing essential knowledge of subsurface conditions, fluid behaviour, and heat flow. Our services support clients through every stage of geothermal project development—from prospecting and resource assessment to well planning and reservoir modelling.
We have partnered with the Geological Engineering Network, or GEN, a team of renowned geothermal specialists who bring decades of academic and industry expertise to our collaborative projects. Bridging the gap between theory and application, Simco and GEN can ensure that geothermal projects are technically sound and commercially viable.
As we reduce our reliance on hydrocarbons, geothermal energy can assume some of that burden by providing continuous, renewable and sustainable power. We bring a hands-on, practical approach to assist clients in discovering its full potential.
Hydrocarbons Advisory Services
While the global focus continues to shift toward cleaner energy, hydrocarbons will remain essential to the energy mix for decades—particularly in industries such as aviation, heavy transport, manufacturing, and chemicals, where reliable alternatives are still emerging. At Simco Energy Management, we provide technically focused, responsible advisory services to support efficient hydrocarbon exploration and development.
Our expertise spans the full exploration-to-production lifecycle, with particular strength in subsurface evaluation, seismic data interpretation, and reprocessing, allowing us to assist clients in identifying new prospects or enhancing understanding of mature assets. This includes support with volumetric analysis, risk assessment, and prospect ranking.
We also advise on licensing applications, regulatory liaison (including NSTA communications), farm-outs, acquisitions and divestments (A&D), and project management; Simco has a proven track record of successfully coordinating multidisciplinary project teams.
Carbon Storage Advisory Services
Carbon storage—distinct from carbon capture—is a critical tool in achieving global emissions reduction goals. By safely storing CO₂ in geological formations such as depleted oil and gas fields or deep saline aquifers, we can significantly reduce atmospheric carbon levels while making use of existing subsurface knowledge and infrastructure.
Simco Energy Management has partnered with experts in this field, and together we offer comprehensive support for companies seeking to evaluate and develop carbon storage projects. Our team includes highly skilled geoscientists, reservoir engineers, drilling and corrosion specialists, and regulatory experts—covering every discipline required to assess and implement safe and effective carbon storage solutions.
We help clients identify suitable storage sites, evaluate their long-term viability, and manage the regulatory and technical processes involved.
