This grant from the Department of Energy focuses on the development and validation of cutting-edge sensor systems for deep subsurface monitoring. The funded projects will enhance the understanding of fluid movement and subsurface properties, facilitating better predictions within subsurface formations. Projects should include field laboratory validation, conducted in active field projects similar to CO2 storage projects. Proposals should feature sensor systems integrated with autonomous monitoring systems, with no casing perforation or cables in the annulus. Applications are due by June 21, 2019.

| Description: | The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA)is to develop and validate innovative transformational sensor systems, amenable for integration with autonomous intelligent monitoring systems, to be deployed within the casing annulus and does not have casing perforation or wires/cables in the annulus for installation, power supply, or data transmission needs.
Research and Design will need to improve the ability to characterize and predict movement of fluids in the subsurface and the ability to measure critical subsurface properties throughout a subsurface formation. Research and Design will include field laboratory validation of the proposed component sensor system. A project will be considered field laboratory validated if it is deployed and tested at an active field project under the conditions expected during a CO2 storage project. |

| Description: | The purpose of this Request for Information (RFI) is to seek information from stakeholders such as industry, academia, nonprofits, and research institutions about Research and Development (R&D) activities that could lead to development of transformational sensing capabilities for monitoring parameters associated with CO2 injection throughout the storage complex, including: overburden, reservoir, and underburden. This includes fluid flow throughout the reservoirs into the far field through critical but difficult-to-detect features such as faults and integrated fracture networks. Of particular interest are transformational sensors or sensing systems that will improve the ability to monitor movement of fluids in the subsurface and the ability to measure critical subsurface properties throughout a commercial-scale (greater than 50 million metric tons CO2 stored) storage complex. A storage complex consists of: (1) one or more storage reservoirs, with permeability and porosity that allow injection and storage of CO2; and (2) one or more low-permeability seals, which enclose the reservoir(s) and serve as barriers to migration of CO2 out of the reservoir.This is solely a request for information and is not a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA). U.S. DOE is not accepting applications to this RFI. |
