Project Description

 

 

Project Description:

The objective of this project is to provide a wide range of benefits which are of high value to industry.  The tasks include the following:  evaluate potential U.S. CO2 / ECBM localities with  available industry data; known problems and findings;  evalaute potential for a field test involving N2/CO2 mixtures (similar to power-plant flue gas) for sequestration and ECBM.   Examine the feasibility of CO2 sequestration in the broad set of conditions (coal types and emission compositions) that are likely to be encountered in  the U.S.;  develop screening models to enable industry to quickly evaluate the technical / economic feasibility of CO2 sequestration in coalbeds for project specific conditions;  and initiate a  technology deployment program; including an industry consortium; targeted presentations; publications and a project website to ensure timely information transfer to both focused and wide-interest audiences.

 

Project Background:

Advanced Resources International(ARI) is using existing reservoir modeling approaches to evalaute the viability of storing CO2 in deep unminable coal seams in the San Juan Basin in northwest New Mexico and southwestern Colorado.  The knowledge gained will be used to verifly and validate gas storatge mechanisms in coal reservoirs; and to develop a screening model to assess CO2 sequestration potential.
