The past two decades of research on Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) seem to have
finally become fruitful as global leaders and energy-intensive industries are cooperating to …

Many countries have assigned an indispensable role for carbon capture and storage (CCS)
in their national climate change mitigation pathways. However, CCS deployment has stalled …

Abstract Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is an essential tool in the fight against climate
change. Any prospective storage site must meet various criteria that ensure the …

We present a micromechanical characterization of shales from the Horn River Basin, NW
Canada. The shales have contrasting mineralogy and microstructures and play different …

Determination of mineral texture and diagenetic features in mudstones is crucial to reveal
the history of their pore systems and provides key information to predict their future sealing …

Fine-grained lithologies above CCS reservoirs cannot automatically be assumed to be
mineralogically stable, or high quality top-seals to highly pressured CO 2 as saline aquifer …

Porosity in shale reservoirs is profoundly influenced by diagenetic processes that shape the
evolution of pore space. In the Songliao Basin, the first member of the Qingshankou …

This paper presents a high-level overview of site characterization, risk analysis and
monitoring priorities for underground energy-related product storage or sequestration …

We conducted a high-resolution multi-disciplinary analysis of two core sections in the
borehole Ellesmere Port-1, Cheshire, UK. Biostratigraphic analysis indicates that the core …

The injection of relatively cold CO 2 into warmer reservoirs causes rapid cooling of the host
reservoir and the overlying caprock in the near wellbore region. This rapid cooling may …
