CO2 storage fasibility: A workflow for site characterisation

In this paper, we present an overview of the SiteChar workflow model for site characterisation and assessment for CO2 storage. Site characterisation and assessment is required when permits are requested from the legal authorities in the process of starting a CO2 storage process at a given site. The goal is to assess whether a proposed CO2...

Sitechar-methodology for a fit-for-purpose assessment of CO2 storage sites in Europe = SiteChar-Une méthodologie pour une caractérisation appropriée des sites de stockage de CO2

The FP7-funded SiteChar project examined the entire CO<inf>2</inf> geological storage site characterisation process, from the initial feasibility studies through to the final stage of application for a CO<inf>2</inf> storage permit based on criteria defined by the relevant European legislation. The SiteChar workflow for CO<inf>2</inf> geological...

SiteChar - Workflow for fit-for-purpose characterisation of CO2 storage sites in Europe

The FP7 SiteChar project has examined the entire site characterization chain, from the initial feasibility studies through to the final stage of application for a storage permit, on the basis of criteria defined by the relevant European legislation, highlighting important issues and recommendations such as the importance of a fit-to purpose...

GHGT-11 - Integrated Carbon Risk Assessment (ICARAS)

In this paper an integrated workflow is described for risk assessment within CCS. IFPEN, SINTEF and TNO joined forces to define a comprehensive and transparent risk assessment methodology. The tools developed in these institutes are thereby integrated. The workflow can be applied to proposed carbon storage sites. Starting with a qualitative...

The SiteChar approach to efficient and focused CO2 storage site characterisation

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is one of the solutions that can significantly reduce CO2 during the transition from fossil fuel-based energy to an energy system based on renewable energy sources. Recent studies point out that sufficient storage capacity in saline aquifers and depleted gas fields is available to permanently store several...
