Publication Overview
The Joint Network Meeting co-ordinates all four of the geological storage networks: Risk Assessment; Monitoring; Modelling; and Wellbore Integrity; and the Environmental Impacts of CO2 Storage Workshop Series. The 2nd IEAGHG Joint Storage Network meeting was held from the 19th to the 21st of June 2012 in Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA. It was hosted by Los Alamos National Laboratory and sponsored by Sandia National Laboratories, Los Alamos National Laboratory and Schlumberger Carbon Services. Sixty-eight delegates attended, representing 11 different countries.
The aims of the meeting were to:
Publication Summary
The common needs recognised throughout the workshop include systematic iterative links between risk assessment (including monitoring and WBI), monitoring, verification and best practices, dealing with uncertainty, consequences and mitigation plans, and defining criteria, thresholds and acceptable deviations from trends.
An overall conclusion that can be drawn from the meeting is that, with a maturing regulatory environment, the technical knowledge and methods now exist in the area of storage so that there seem to be no significant technical barriers to projects meeting the requirements from the fairly stringent regulations in place in many regions. The IEAGHG Research Networks have contributed to this move from research to application. And finally, the Research Networks are highly appreciated by their members who wish them all to continue.
