Fault Seal Controls on CO2 Storage Capacity Presentation

A presentation from the UKCCSRC biannual meeting in Cranfield on April 20th, 2015. It describes work from the 'Fault seal controls on CO2 storage capacity in aquifers' project, funded by UKCCSRC grant UKCCSRC-C1-14. The presentation covers three main work strands analyzing geomechanical integrity and fault leakage in specific geological sites.

Use Cases

• Extract technical descriptions of fault seal potential from the presentation text for natural analogue studies.
• Analyze the presentation's discussion of the Captain Sandstone aquifer for geomechanical integrity features.
• Identify factors leading to fault leakage mentioned in the study of shallow gas accumulations in the Southern North Sea.
• Use the overview of the Fizzy gas field, naturally rich in CO2, as a reference for fault-bounded storage site modeling.

Strengths

• Presentation originates from a UKCCSRC-funded project with a specific grant number (UKCCSRC-C1-14).
• Content is authored by the authoritative British Geological Survey (BGS).
• Covers three distinct geological study sites: Captain Sandstone, Southern North Sea, and Fizzy gas field.

Limitations

• Data consists of a single presentation slide deck, not a structured, machine-readable dataset.
• No quantitative data, columnar features, or sample records are provided for direct analysis.
• Information is from 2015 and may not reflect the latest research or findings in the field.
