Abstract
Abstract An attempting to single out the most attractive storage areas among a large number of mapped CO 2 storage formations, units and traps in the Nordic region, has resulted in a characterisation and ranking procedure for saline aquifer. The ranking methodology is kept simple and divided into four main groups with the most important criteria for reservoir properties, seal properties, safety and data coverage. Based on the ranking 18 of the most prospective CO 2 storage sites have been selected. Furthermore, the critical factors determining if a basalt area is suitable for CO 2 injection is illustrated by an injection site on Iceland.
