Kasper Høj Blinkenberg

Kasper Høj Blinkenberg serves as a Guest Researcher in the Geology section of the Department of Geosciences and Natural Resource Management at the University of Copenhagen's Faculty of Science. His work centers on geological analysis of Danish chalk reservoirs in the North Sea and Central Graben, with emphasis on diagenetic processes and applications for hydrocarbon recovery and carbon sequestration.

His core research interests include:

• Diagenesis mechanisms in carbonate and chalk formations, particularly silica-driven processes
• Reservoir characterization for CO₂ storage and enhanced oil recovery
• Sedimentology and ichnology of the Chalk Group
• Paleoecology of deep-marine benthic communities
• Stratigraphic controls on reservoir quality

Analysis of his 2019-2024 publications reveals consistent integration of field studies, laboratory analysis, and reservoir modeling to address diagenetic impacts on chalk properties. His research demonstrates particular expertise in silica-related diagenesis and its implications for North Sea reservoir management, with growing emphasis on sustainable energy applications like CO₂ storage.
