Fault Seal Analysis of a Natural CO2 Reservoir in Arizona and UK Fields

A poster presented at 'The Fourth International Conference on Fault and Top Seals' in Almeria, Spain, from September 20-24, 2015. The work was funded by the UKCCS Research Centre under grant UKCCSRC-C1-14. It describes an analysis of fault-seal behavior at the CO2-rich St. Johns Dome reservoir in Arizona and the UK Fizzy and Oak CO2-rich gas fields.

Use Cases

• Modeling fault seal behavior for CO2 storage sites based on the described analogue analysis.
• Assessing CO2 storage capacity in aquifers based on the project's stated research focus.
• Comparing fault seal characteristics between natural analogues and potential storage sites based on the described sites.

Strengths

• Describes analysis of a specific natural CO2 reservoir analogue (St. Johns Dome, Arizona).
• Funded by a specific research grant (UKCCSRC-C1-14) from the UKCCS Research Centre.
• Includes comparative analysis of UK CO2-rich gas fields (Fizzy and Oak).

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
