Webinar: Structural characterization and across-fault seal assessment of the Aurora CO2 storage site, northern North Sea

15/11/2021 The structrual geology network group presents Nora Holde from the University of Oslo. The topic will be "Structural characterization and across-fault seal assessment of the Aurora CO2 storage site, northern North Sea".

Summary

"The Aurora Exploitation License represents a potential CO2 storage site in the northern North Sea. Within the storage site, the Lower Jurassic Dunlin Group represents the storage aquifer and seal pair, which is intersected and displaced by numerous faults. In a CO2 storage site, faults may serve as conduits or barriers to fluid flow. Therefore, we aim to reduce uncertainties associated with storage of CO2 within Aurora by performing detailed fault characterizations and across-fault seal assessments.
