CO2 storage development: status of the large European CCS project with EEPR funding
article
This paper presents an overview of the CO2 storage element of the projects that are part of the European CCS
Demonstration Project Network, an FP7 funded project to support the knowledge exchange among the CCS projects
that have received funding under the EEPR framework. These projects include the ROAD project (The Netherlands)
and the Don Valley project (UK). The HontomÃn project (Spain) can be regarded as the third project, as it was
developed as the research site for the Compostilla project in Spain; the Compostilla project, also a beneficiary of
EEPR funds, was discontinued in 2013 after completing FEED studies. The Sleipner project joined the Network in
2011 and provided its experience and expertise to the EEPR funded projects. Together, the projects in the Network
cover a wide range of storage options, from a depleted gas field to saline sandstone and carbonate formations. The
ROAD project uses a compartment of an offshore depleted gas field, and the Don Valley project is developing an
offshore saline aquifer. The HontomÃn site, dedicated to research, uses an onshore carbonate reservoir. This paper
gives an overview of the storage solutions developed or under development by these projects
