SWP San Juan

Project Overview

The San Juan Basin is located near Navajo City, New Mexico and is one of the top ranked basins in the world for CO2 coalbed sequestration. The Southwest Partnership (SWP) is conducting the San Juan Basin enhanced coal-bed methane (ECBM) field validation test in cooperation with Burlington Resources. In August 2007 injection of about 68,000 tonnes of CO2 began, and will continue over a one year period, to evaluate CBM production efficiency and CO2 storage optimization.
