Optimize CO2 Storage Operating Costs
Carbon capture, utilization, and sequestration (CCUS) projects are crucial for achieving net-zero energy goals by 2050. Schlumberger's Petrel offers over 25 years of CCUS project expertise and 40 years of subsurface digital modeling solutions. With a focus on cost-effectiveness, Petrel enables companies to plan and execute end-to-end CCUS projects efficiently. By providing in-depth modeling and simulation capabilities, Petrel helps evaluate carbon storage projects to meet the increasing demands for carbon capture and storage.
Screening and Ranking CO2 Storage Sites
Identifying optimal CO2 storage sites involves leveraging Schlumberger's digital tools developed for oil and gas reservoirs. High porosity, permeability, structural and stratigraphic traps are key criteria for evaluating storage sites. Physical proximity to capture facilities is also considered in the site assessment. Schlumberger's advanced digital technologies facilitate a quick and thorough evaluation of potential CO2 storage sites, ensuring comprehensive site ranking and selection.
Ensuring Long-Term CO2 Storage Integrity
Assessing the long-term integrity of CO2 storage sites is essential for successful carbon capture projects. Schlumberger's Petrel utilizes reservoir modeling and flow simulation assessments to understand trapping mechanisms, potential CO2 migration, and caprock integrity. Integration of reservoir simulation with geomechanics studies offers a deeper insight into reservoir integrity. A Monitoring, Measurement, and Verification plan (MMV) further ensures site integrity and regulatory compliance through advanced technologies and comprehensive reporting tools.
Understanding CO2 Volumes and Injection Rates
Petrel's robust solutions provide insights into CO2 storage volumes and injection rates critical for secure containment. Volumetric assessments and simulation of CO2 flow through storage units help in predicting storage behavior. With dynamic simulation options for various storage scenarios, including saline aquifers and oil reservoirs, Petrel enables a detailed understanding of CO2 injection dynamics. These simulations facilitate informed decision-making for successful and sustainable CO2 storage operations.
