Publication Summary
The third Monitoring Network Workshop built on the material presented and discussed at the
first two meetings held in Santa Cruz, California 2004 and Rome 2005. These meetings had a
principle focus of bringing together, through presentation and discussion, both the regulatory
groups involved in setting monitoring programmes associated with CO₂ storage and those
projects that are implementing such programmes in different environments.
- The inaugural meeting of the Monitoring Network demonstrated that there is a large
tool box of monitoring techniques that can be applied to both surface and sub-surface
monitoring of CO₂. - The second meeting focused on what were the monitoring requirements and how
would they be defined with respect to risk and regulatory requirements. - The third Monitoring meeting further enhanced the dialogue of regulatory and
technical integration, with joint development of Monitoring, Evaluation, Reporting
and Verification (MERV) guidelines.
