Study Notes
First Exploitation License for CO2 Storage
- Equinor, Shell, and Total were awarded the first exploitation license for CO2 storage in the Northern Lights CCS project
- CO2 will be injected at a depth of 2700m in the Northern Lights CCS project, approximately 20 km south of the Troll Structure
- Ocean storage falls under the theoretical storage capacity for dissolution type of CO2 storage
- Low CO2 storage efficiency is due to an unfavorable CO2 - water mobility ratio
- Corrosion by carbonic acid poses a primary risk to well integrity in sequestration in depleted hydrocarbon fields
- The HyNet Project for blue hydrogen production and CO2 storage is located in the East Irish Sea Basin
- The trapping mechanisms for CO2 sequestration in saline aquifers include structural/stratigraphic trapping, residual trapping, solubility trapping, and mineral trapping
- The HyNet Project is associated with CO2 storage in depleted oil reservoirs
- The injectivity index is a function of the formation permeability, the fluid viscosity, and the thickness of the permeable interval
- For structural and stratigraphic trapping to occur, a reservoir rock, a trap, and a seal are needed
- The purpose of CO2 plume migration and trapping mechanisms in saline aquifers is to prevent CO2 from escaping the storage site
- Examples of CO2 sequestration modeling mentioned in the text include the Utsira Formation, the Garn and Ile formations
