Existing pilot, demonstration and commercial storage projects have demonstrated that CO2 geological is technically feasible. However, these do not operate at a scale necessary to make significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere. The infrastructure for injecting carbon dioxide will need be an order of magnitude larger than current CCS projects, comparable size existing petroleum installations. In most cases, injection scheme consist multiple wells, potentially...
During the gas extraction drilling process, especially soft coal seam due to constraints of geological conditions, technical and other factors, it is easy encounter stuck holes, blowout, lost circulation, hole collapse, which affect realization efficient management. In petroleum industry, microfoam fluid has unique advantages as a flushing medium. Through response surface method, this study conducts preliminary experimental on types foaming agents, foam stabilizers, modified bentonite...
Currently there is no standard for risk assessment tools in Carbon Capture and Storage. Existing projects use a range of from the very simple to sophisticated probabilistic. It likely that will ever be appropriate all uses stakeholders within CCS. A key component effectively communicate whether risks have been thoroughly investigated any potential well understood. Using suite across lifecycle project provide best estimates enable communicating this knowledge most effective manner. designing...
Abstract This paper reports estimates of the costs CO2 transport and storage across Australia. The were commissioned as part work Australian Government's Carbon Storage Taskforce. Using data provided by government departments industry, we investigated combinations nine emission hubs twelve basins. We also developed a first-pass method for estimating numbers injection wells using numerical reservoir simulation comparisons with actual projects. forms suite studies intended to help formulate...
This paper demonstrates the application of an approach to storage capacity estimation using a classification system that closely follows Petroleum Resource Management System (PRMS) recommended by Society Engineers. We apply assessment hypothetical, but representative site in Surat Basin, onshore Australia. The assumes CO2 is captured from sources south Queensland and transported potential site. estimate "Prospective Storage Capacity" between zero 560 million tonnes.
The preparation of reasonable estimates CO2 storage capacity is a key task for engineers and geoscientists seeking the large-scale deployment CCS as greenhouse gas reduction measure. This study considers how project maturity injection rate affect likelihood economic viability. We do this by examining effect appraisal using decision tree analysis examine injection-rate on probability successful development economics. Our proposed methodology used to hypothetical transport site. form provides...
Coalbed methane extraction drilling is prone to stuck drill, blowout and collapse, making it difficult achieve efficient gas control. To this end, study developed a high-performance microfoam fluid. Through optimization experiments, 10 foaming agents, 4 foam stabilizers modified bentonite materials are pre-selected, their optimal concentration ranges determined, as well coal-carrying performance tests numerical simulations of laws carried out. The results show that the agent 0.2%~0.6%,...
In this paper, Australia is used as a case study to evaluate potential pathways for staged deployment of low-emission technologies in an integrated, emission intensive electricity market. We assume that carbon capture and storage implemented at existing new power plants. To meet projected demand increase by 2050, the total generation capac ty increases 35%. The cost 2050 more than double current value, with moderate annual between now then. An 80% reduction target can be achieved 2050....
