A Roadmap to CCS Success

A critical Step by Step Approach is needed for Successful CCUS Project

-Key learning from recent CCUS project was effort should be focused on Successful CCUS project, not just Permitting or regulatory approval.  Other learnings are:

  1. A step by step approach  from site screening to Site selection and then Site Characterization
  2. Managing uncertainty is key; range of subsurface realizations are needed to cover the range of uncertainties and risks
  3. Models are used for identifying data, but also for monitoring CO2 plume propagation with time and it’s verification with modeled forecast.
  4. Focus of uncertainty management should be on all three critical elements of CCUS project; CAPACITY, INJECTIVITY & CONTAINMENT
  5. Social & regulatory issues are equally important as are G&G and the technical issues
