Fault Seal Controls on CO2 Storage Capacity Research Poster

A research poster from the UKCCSRC Call 1 project presented at the Cranfield Biannual meeting on April III, 2015. It describes work on fault seal controls for CO2 storage capacity, focusing on three geological study areas: the Captain Sandstone aquifer, shallow gas accumulations in the Netherlands North Sea, and the Fizzy gas field. The poster provides an overview of project strands funded under grant UKCCSRC-C1-14.

Use Cases

• Extract geological descriptions of the Captain Sandstone aquifer for fault integrity analysis in CO2 storage site screening
• Analyze the relationship between shallow gas accumulations and faulting patterns from the North Sea case study to model leakage factors
• Use the Fizzy gas field as a natural analogue for fault-bounded storage sites to inform fault seal potential assessments

Strengths

• Content is directly from a UK Carbon Capture and Storage Research Centre (UKCCSRC) funded project, grant UKCCSRC-C1-14
• Covers three distinct geological study areas providing comparative analysis opportunities
• Poster was presented at a formal biannual meeting, indicating peer-reviewed context

Limitations

• Dataset is a single static poster image; no structured tabular data, columns, or sample data are available
• No quantitative data, row counts, or file formats are provided for computational analysis
• Information is from a specific 2015 presentation and may not reflect the latest research
