Empowering the Assessment of Carbon Capture and Storage with Unity


For carbon capture and storage (CCS) to be effective, CO2 and reservoir rock interactions must be predicted. Here, we assess the mineralogy and texture of a Caspian sandstone from the Acorn CCS project. The sample contains a significant component of skeletal feldspar and calcite (>8%). These minerals and textures are known to enhance reactivity with supercritical CO2. Therefore, geomechanical models must account for carbon mineralisation, which could impede CO2 flow.
