CCS world projects: WESTC R-Gas
Two pilot tests involving CO2 injection will be performed at the Rosetta CO2 Storage project site. One of the experiments will involve injecting up to 2000 tonnes of CO2 into a depletion-drive, depleted gas reservoir located within the Middle Capay shale at a depth of approximately 928 m. This experiment is designed to assess the nature and extent of reservoir pressurization and displacement of methane by CO2. The CO2 to be injected will be purchased from a local supplier and trucked to the pilot site.
