This workshop aims to provide participants with a practical knowledge of CO2 geological storage and also a case study where evaluation parameters will define the choice of a specific site.
Public :
This formation is for Oil & Gas professionals or engineers that will work in CO2 storage.
Level :Skilled
Prerequisite :
Degree in engineering or geosciences.
Course Content
INTRODUCTION TO CO2 GEOLOGICAL STORAGE
Reasons to make a CO2 geological storage.
Types of different reservoirs or geological formations that can store CO2.
Technical barriers for CO2 geological storage.
Issues and concerns in assessing a potential site and reservoir.
Challenges for a stable CO2 storage through time.
TECHNICAL WORKFLOW FOR CO2 GEOLOGICAL STORAGE
