Frio brine storage experiment—lessons learned
(8th International Conference on Greenhouse Gas Control Technologies, 2013-06-19)The Frio Brine pilot is a closely monitored, small-volume (1,600 tons), short-duration experiment using injection of CO2 into high-permeability brine-bearing sandstone to test the feasibility of geologic sequestration. The ... -
Frio brine sequestration pilot in the Texas Gulf Coast
(Greenhouse gas control technologies: Proceedings, 6th International Conference on Greenhouse Gas Control Technologies, 2003-10-01)A field experiment to pioneer CO2 injection for sequestration in a brine-bearing sandstone-shale sequence in the Texas Gulf Coast, USA, is in the preinjection modeling and planning phase. Innovations in this experiment ... -

EOR as sequestration: Geoscience perspective
(Symposium on Role of EOR in Accelerating Deployment of CCS, 2010-07-23)CO2 Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) has a development and operational history several decades longer than geologic sequestration of CO2 designed to benefit the atmosphere and provides much of the experience on which confidence ... -

Economic modeling of carbon dioxide integrated pipeline network for enhanced oil recovery and geologic sequestration in the Texas Gulf Coast region
(9th International Conference on Greenhouse Gas Control Technologies (GHGT-9), 2008-11-16)Naturally occurring CO2 is transported via pipelines to oil fields in West Texas to enhance production. A similar pipeline system is proposed for the Gulf Coast region of Texas. The CO2 would come from anthropogenic ... -
Economic analysis of an integrated anthropogenic carbon dioxide network for capture and enhanced oil recovery along the Texas Gulf Coast
(Proceedings of the ASME 3rd International Conference on Energy Sustainability, 2009-07-19)This paper explains the system economics of an example integrated network that uses anthropogenic CO2 from Texas Gulf Coast fossil power plants for enhanced oil recovery (EOR). These CO2 sources and sinks are connected via ... -
Continuous pressure monitoring for large volume CO2 injections
(9th International Conference on Greenhouse Gas Control Technologies (GHGT-9), 2008-11-16)Elevated formation fluid pressure resulting from large-volume injection of carbon dioxide (CO2) for sequestration is a key factor affecting storage seal integrity (containment risk) and ultimate capacity. Current methods ...
