CAGS: China-Australia Geological CO2 Storage Project Summary

The China-Australia Geological Storage of CO2 (CAGS) project summary describes capacity building and research from 2008 to 2018. Phase 2 involved over 150 experts from more than 30 organizations and supported 5 research projects in basins like Sichuan and Ordos. The summary, authored by A.J. Feitz et al. and published in Energy Procedia in 2017, outlines project activities and forms the basis for Phase 3.

Use Cases

• Analyzing international collaboration structures in CCS based on the described capacity building activities and expert exchanges.
• Studying the evolution of CCS research priorities based on the transition from CAGS2 to CAGS3 and the identified future cooperation areas.
• Evaluating the impact of training programs on CCS promotion within institutions based on the participant survey results mentioned.

Strengths

• Project summary is based on a published, peer-reviewed article in Energy Procedia (Volume 114, 2017).
• Describes concrete project scale: over 150 participants from more than 30 organizations and 5 supported research projects.
• Provides specific temporal context with project phases from 2008-2015 (CAGS2) and 2016-2018 (CAGS3).

Limitations

• The dataset appears to be a project summary document (HTML), not a structured data file with rows and columns.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for quantitative analysis.
