Publisher Summary The goals of the GEO-SEQ Project are to reduce the cost and risk of geologic sequestration and decrease the time to implementation. To reduce costs, it has been shown that enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods can be optimized for sequestration and that enhanced gas recovery (EGR) with sequestration is feasible. An evaluation of the effects of SO x and NO x on geochemical reactions between CO 2 , water, and reservoir rocks has been done to assess the use of impure waste streams as a means to reduce overall sequestration costs. To reduce sequestration risks, a methodology for site-specific selection of subsurface monitoring technologies has been demonstrated, baseline data needed for interpretation of isotopic tracers used to monitor reservoir processes have been developed, and a new definition of formation capacity factor for use in assessing sequestration efficiency has been developed. Code comparison studies are underway for oil, gas, brine, and coalbed reservoir simulators for predicting the fate of CO 2 in the subsurface. The GEO-SEQ Project has conducted field tests of monitoring technology at CO 2 EOR projects in California and New Mexico, and is collaborating on a pilot brine formation sequestration test in Texas. |
