  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR EVALUATING HYDROGEN GENERATION POTENTIAL USING MAGNETIC SUSCEPTIBILITY AND GRAVITY MEASUREMENTS FOR NATURAL HYDROGEN EXPLORATION
    Publication number: 20260118544
    Abstract: A method for evaluating geological hydrogen source rock in a region is provided. The method includes: collecting magnetic susceptibility data from a plurality of subsurface locations in the region; receiving geophysical survey data of the region, wherein the geophysical survey data comprises geophysical data collected from above ground; tying the magnetic susceptibility data of the plurality of subsurface locations to the geophysical survey data; generating a geologic map of igneous rock, metamorphic rock, or mafic mineral-or iron-rich sedimentary rock within the region based on the magnetic susceptibility data using a model; and determining, based on the geologic map, a target zone of the geological hydrogen source rock with a potential for hydrogen production or with the potential for hydrogen accumulation.
    Type: Application
