In the classical concept of storing CO2 in deep sedimentary aquifers, supercritical CO2 has a lower density than the resident brine. CO2 is therefore buoyant and the safety and effectiveness of the storage concept rely on the caprock sealing capacity to prevent CO2 leakage. To reduce the risk of CO2 leakage and widen the CO2 storage options, we propose an innovative concept that consists in injecting CO2 in reservoirs where the temperature and pressure of the resident brine are above the critical point ( 373.95 ºC and 22.064 MPa for pure water). At such conditions, which can be found at depths between 3 to 5 km in volcanic areas, CO2 is denser than the resident water and thus, sinks. The sinking tendency reduces the risk of CO2 leakage to the surface even in case of damaged or absent caprock. CO2 storage in supercritical reservoirs can potentially become an additional option to the existing storage concepts aimed at significantly reduce CO2 emissions. We estimate that every 100 wells drilled into supercritical reservoirs could store between 50 to 500 Mt/yr of CO2. | Versión del editor: | 10.5194/egusphere-egu21-1990 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/246854 | DOI: | 10.5194/egusphere-egu21-1990 |
