Basin resource management for carbon storage: a literature review

1st November 2011

Topic(s): Carbon capture use and storage (CCUS), CO2 storage

Supported by ANLEC R&D, CSIRO and Curtin University are jointly conducting an assessment of the site specific resources that are geographically co-located with proposed carbon storage. The project also aims to understand the structural, stratigraphic and geomechanical aspects at proposed storage sites in the Southern Perth Basin, the Gippsland Basin, and the Surat Basin, in Australia to assess the potential impacts of CO2 injection on adjacent resources. This literature review and data gap analysis forms a first step of the study to understanding the present level of knowledge for conducting such an assessment.

The literature reviewed relates both to any direct assessment of potential impacts of CO2 on other natural resources, as well as those that contain valuable information that would be used for making such an assessment. These include reports on hydrogeology and groundwater prospectivity, hydrocarbon and coal occurrence, geomechanical and structural assessment, and other relevant site specific studies on carbon dioxide storage.
