Poroelastic Modelling of Production and Injection-Induced Stress Changes in a Pinnacle Reef

This paper summarizes semi-analytical and closed-form solutions that can be used to assess the poroelastic stress changes induced within a porous formation (reservoir) during a pore pressure change. Further, solutions are presented for the stress discontinuities at the interfaces between reservoirs and the rocks that surround them. When used in combination with rock failure criteria, these solutions enable relatively simple analyses of the potential for induced fracturing or fault reactivation within a reservoir or the rock immediately adjacent to it. The latter , in particular, is useful for assessing if the hydraulic integrity of the surrounding rock (i.e., the bounding seal) will be affected by a pore pressure change. The use of the approach presented in this paper is illustrated with an analysis of a pinnacle reef with dimensions and properties representative of reefs in the Zama oil field, northwestern Alberta, Canada. Scenarios of pore pressure decrease (during historical production operations) and pore pressure increase (during several years of acid gas injection operations) are analyzed, for three different idealizations of reservoir properties and geometry (two plane strain and one axisymmetric). These results suggest that that the potential for induced fracturing is not significant at any point within the reservoir or the surrounding rock for both the production and injection scenarios that were simulated. Similarly, fault reactivation was not predicted for the reservoir or any of the points that were analyzed in the surrounding rock. However, fault orientations having the greatest potential for reactivating during historical production operations were identified; thus, illustrating a means of using geomechanical models to focus geological characterization efforts on the features that are most critical to acid gas containment.

Petrophysical Assessment of USGS Core Samples for the Bell Creek Project

As part of the characterization efforts for the Bell Creek oil field, 81 core samples of the Muddy and Mowry Formations from 21 wells were selected from the U.S. Geological Survey Core Research Center in Denver, Colorado, and analyzed by the EERC's Applied Geology Laboratory. The samples were characterized in detail for several rock properties, such as compositional mineralogy, bulk mineralogy, grain size, porosity, permeability, pore volume, clay type, bulk chemistry, diagenetic features, and biological characteristics. The goal of this characterization activity is to obtain a better understanding of the petrographic and petrophysical properties of the Mowry and Muddy Formations in and around Bell Creek oil field.

Wellbore Evaluation of the Basal Cambrian System

The Plains CO2 Reduction (PCOR) Partnership performed a wellbore integrity assessment
to evaluate the relative leakage potential of 826 wells penetrating the basal Cambrian system in
the United States, drilled between 1921 and 2010. The basal Cambrian system is a deep saline
reservoir that has been identified by the U.S. Department of Energy as a potential carbon dioxide
(CO2) storage site. The ability of the basal Cambrian system to retain injected CO2 over an
extended period of time is, in part, dependent on the integrity of wellbores that penetrate the
target reservoir. Wellbore integrity is the ability of a well to maintain hydraulic isolation of
geologic formations and prevent the vertical migration of fluids (Zhang and Bachu, 2011; Crow
and others, 2010). This study’s evaluation of wellbore integrity involves analyzing wellbore
characteristics (i.e., cement types, cement additives, completion techniques, well depths, and
well casing) to derive a relative leakage potential score using methods similar to Bachu and
others (2012). Wells were assigned a classification of minimal, lower, moderate, or higher based
on their relative leakage potential. This study provides a screening-level evaluation to compare
and rank wells for further detailed evaluation. Site-specific risk analysis within these target
areas would trigger a more detailed assessment of those wells identified for further
investigation. Potentially leaking or high-risk wells could be addressed using established
remediation programs employing current well mitigation technologies or appropriate
monitoring during CO2 injection.
The results of this regional screening-level evaluation determined that 15% of the wells
assessed were classified as moderate or higher potential for deep well leakage, and 6.0% of the
wells were classified moderate or higher for shallow well leakage. Of the wells assessed, 3.4%
exhibited moderate or higher potential for both shallow and deep leakage. The majority of the
moderate- or higher-potential wells are located in western North Dakota and eastern Montana in
areas of intensive oil and gas exploration and production. The practice of producing oil and gas
from these wells has increased the relative well leakage potential (based on the available data
and methods utilized). The ranking of the relative leakage potential provides a mechanism to
screen wells for detailed evaluation in areas targeted for CO2 injection.

Fort Nelson Carbon Capture and Storage Feasibility Study - A Best Practices Manual for Storage in a Deep Carbonate Saline Formation

A feasibility study of carbon capture and storage at Fort Nelson. 

PHILOSOPHY OF THE BEST PRACTICES MANUAL
DOE has established a process whereby information is conveyed to CCS stakeholders through the use of BPMs. These documents serve to provide specific information and lessons learned regarding key aspects of the characterization, development, and implementation phases of large-scale CCS projects. The information compiled here is intended to increase awareness of the steps required to use an iterative, adaptive management approach to determine the technical viability of commercially implementing a CCS project. Specifically, this BPM is a technical guide to conducting a feasibility study for storing CO2 in a deep carbonate saline formation. The target audience for this BPM includes project developers; regulatory officials; national,  state/provincial, and local policymakers; and the CCS scientific and engineering community. The information in this BPM is intended to serve as a guide to other regions where deep carbonate formations may serve as targets for geological storage of CO2. The approach of this BPM is to present and describe the critical steps that must be taken prior to undertaking a large-scale CCS project, specifically, site characterization, modeling and simulation, risk assessment (RA), and planning for monitoring, verification, and accounting (MVA). The approach and results of the work that was conducted by SET and the PCOR Partnership for the Fort Nelson project are presented as an example of the application of this iterative, adaptive management approach.
