Venezuela (2012-2013) – Geogreen and Beicip-Franlab has launched the next phase of the PDVSA CO2-EOR project aiming at realizing a pilot: Detailed CO2-EOR assessment including 3D modeling and simulation, well analysis, conceptual design for transport, risk analysis and MMV.

 
 
E.On
France (2012) – Following a first study carried out in in 2011, Geogreen has performed a second CCS-Ready assessment for a new power project of E.On, in France. As part of the assessment, Geogreen screened deep saline formations for storage suitability and completed the basic design, routing, and economic analysis for a potential CO2 transport system and the CO2 storage component.

France (2012-2013) – Geogreen is the co-ordinator of the second phase of the MANAUS project (methodology for risk assessment) where the methodology developed in the first phases is applied to several test sites.


PROJECT PARTNERS

 
 
EU FP7
Europe/France (2011-2015) - The ULTIMATE CO2 Project, funded by the European FP7, is aimed at the investigation of the long-term fate of CO2 within a geological storage and will examine the physical behavior of the geology with experimentation at the core- and well-scale. Geogreen's participation entails the evaluation of the long-term fate of CO2 in the context of the ULCOS exploration permit in northeastern France. 

 
 
VASCO
France (2011-2012) - Geogreen is the project coordinator for this effort to develop a carbon management plan supported by a consortium of companies and public entities active in the industrial sectors around the Port of Marseille. Geogreen will perform an emissions source clustering and centralized emissions treatment (pooling) scenario development, the optimization of the emissions/CO2 collection systems and transport network, design and carbon and energy footprint analysis of the overall CO2 capture, transport and the eventual export scenarios to North Africa for EOR, CO2 valorization options around Marseille - including CO2 bio-remediation via micro-algae cultivation. 

PROJECT PARTNERS

 
 
ADEME
France (2010-2011) - Geogreen is the project leader for this effort to develop of a comprehensive CO2 storage risk methodology in the first stage of this project shared with several French research and commercial entities. In a second phase, Geogreen will be responsible for applying the methodology to a variety of real CO2 storage project sites in France. This project will benefit from Geogreen's expertise in CO2 storage risk assessment and storage engineering. 

PROJECT PARTNERS

 
 
UNIDO Report
Vienna (2010) - Geogreen completed a source-to-sink matching assessment that was then used for the UNIDO-IEA report: Technology Roadmap: Carbon Capture and Storage in Industrial Applications. The primary analyses performed by Geogreen included: source-to-sink matching for industrial emissions in non-OECD countries using the global storage suitability map produced for the IEA-GHG publication Global Storage Resources Gap Analysis for Policy Makers, as well as industrial CCS project development projections for the different regions of the study, identification of key road blocks for CCS deployment in developing economies, and recommendations to policy makers on how to best proceed. 

 
 
ULCOS
France (2010-2012) - Geogreen has worked closely with the ULCOS project and ArcelorMittal on the development of CO2 transport and storage options for their industrial CCS demonstration on a steel plant at Florange, France. Geogreen is the owner's engineers for ArcelorMittal: providing storage options screening and evaluation, project management/ contracting, 3D geological modeling, petrophysical interpretation, hydrodynamic simulations of CO2 injections, construction/engineering of the storage complex model, seismic program design and management, transverse project risk analysis, injection well design, administrative engineering, and the basic design of the CO2 transport for the demonstration project submitted to the EU-NER-300. 

 
 
E.On
France (2010) - Geogreen assessed what steps for an E.On power plant in France would need to take to deploy CO2 transport and storage. As part of the assessment, Geogreen screened deep saline formations and gas fields for storage suitability and completed the basic design, routing, and economic analysis for a potential CO2 transport system and the CO2 storage component. 

 
 
Groupe TIRU
France (2010) - Geogreen provided storage expertise to Groupe TIRU, who was interested in exploring emissions treatment options for a facility in the southwestern France. Specifically, Geogreen screened potential deep saline formations for CO2 storage suitability and assessed the potential for utilization through bio-remediation of the CO2 via micro-algae in collaboration with IFREMER.
