Book Review: How to Store C02 Underground

2020-07-03 20:00:00| Oil IT Journal - www.oilit.com

Philip Ringrose's new book, 'How to Store CO2 Underground: Insights from early-mover CCS Projects' is a clear, well-illustrated summary of the geological and engineering aspects of CO2 sequestration. Ringrose, who shares his affiliations between NNTU, Equinor and the University of Edinburgh, acknowledges a bias towards Norwegian and European projects and Equinor's CCS operations. However as these, especially Equinor's, are copiously studied and published, this is hardly a disadvantage. Ringrose's 'essential message' is that the engineered geological storage of CO2 is a relatively straightforward and established technology which will be urgently needed in the coming decades.

2020 Underground Injection Control Conference

2020-07-03 20:00:00| Oil IT Journal - www.oilit.com

The 2020 Underground Injection Control Conference was held under the auspices of the US Groundwater Protection Council in San Antonio, Texas earlier this year. A new tax regime in the USA is designed to encourage carbon capture, use and storage (CCUS) with perhaps more of an emphasis on the use of CO2 in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) than is seen in other jurisdictions where the simple 'sequestration' of the greenhouse gas is an end in itself. ExxonMobil/Texas RRC on the need for 'widespread CCUS deployment'. NETL on the 'SMART' initiative (science-informed machine learning to accelerate real-time decisions in subsurface applications). DNV GL on QA of CO2 storage. The DOE's water security grand challenge. Advanced Resources International (ARI) on the CO2 SRMS, storage resource management system. ARI on turning CO2-EOR into 'carbon-negative oil'.
