A comparative study of US DOE, CSLF, and poulsen volumetric methods for CO₂ storage capacity estimation
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study aims to estimate the theoretical carbon dioxide ( ) storage capacity of the T Formation using the US DOE, CSLF, and Poulsen methods. The calculation begins by determining the density at reservoir conditions utilizing the real gas approach (Standing-Katz), which subsequently serves as a primary parameter for all three methods. The results show that the estimated storage capacities using the US DOE, CSLF, and Poulsen methods are 12.92 Mt, 12.06 Mt, and 14.51 Mt, respectively. This variance is driven by differing methodologies: the US DOE and CSLF methods apply a volumetric approach based on reservoir geological parameters, whereas the Poulsen method relies on a production data-driven approach.
