This department is offering a grant to develop technologies and simulation tools for secure geologic carbon dioxide storage. This grant is for addressing key challenges: improving containment, optimizing injection, increasing reservoir storage efficiency, and mitigating releases. Supported research areas include: studies of existing CO2-exposed wellbores; advanced wellbore integrity technologies; field methods for capacity optimization and containment; and enhanced simulation tools for improved predictions and performance. The purpose is to ensure permanent, reliable carbon sequestration.
