This 12 month project was funded with £2.5m from DECC. It progressed the appraisal of five selected storage sites towards readiness for Final Investment Decisions, de-risking these stores for potential future storage developers. This project identified 20 specific CO2 storage sites (from a potential 579 sites) which together represent the tip of a very large strategic national CO2 storage resource potential, estimated to be around 78GT (78,000 million tonnes). The top 15% of this potential storage capacity would last the UK around 100 years. Five of these sites were then selected for further detailed analysis given their potential contribution to mobilise commercial-scale carbon, capture and storage (CCS) projects for power and industrial use in the UK. Outline storage development plans and budgets were prepared for each. The workscope included: • Data collection, screening and understanding (579 fields) • Initial analysis of preferred sites (20 fields) • Detailed static and dynamic subsurface and wells modelling (5 fields) • Identify storage development scenarios including assessment of capacity, injectivity, containment and cost • Generate injection profiles and monitor 1000 year plume migration • Identify and understand key subsurface and wells risks • Prepare detailed technical reports and presentations including FDP and non-technical summary report • Present results at public meeting in London • Provide intensive project management and incorporate stakeholder peer review ‍ The study results are published and can be found here https://www.eti.co.uk/programmes/carbon-capture-storage/strategic-uk-ccs-storage-appraisal ‍ Back To Recent Projects Head Office KETTOCK LODGE, CAMPUS 2 BALGOWNIE DRIVE ABERDEEN INNOVATION PARK BRIDGE OF DON ABERDEEN, AB22 8GU SCOTLAND, UK +44 (0)1224 829200 info@axis-wt.com Quick Links About Us Well Operation Services Well & Reservoir Studies Our Experience T&C Privacy Policy Staff Login © COPYRIGHT 2020 AXIS WELL TECHNOLOGY LIMITED Company number SC217030 DESIGNED BY SPYNDL SOME PHOTOGRAPHY BY ZEESSTOF By using this website you comply with our cookies policy, please click to view
