WP2Geo-characterisation

WP2 will assemble, acquire and interpret geological data for the three pilot sites (Ebro, Lusitanian and Paris Basins), building conceptual geological models of them. For the two secondary sites (West Macedonia, Upper Silesia) data will be acquired, re-processed and re-interpreted. 

 

  • Geological modelling of pilot sites (Ebro, Lusitanian and Paris Basins) 
  • Bespoke data acquisition and interpretation for each pilot region; will supply additional data to WPs 3 & 4
  • Each region will work semi-autonomously on their own site, but with common methodology and aims
  • Re-interpret data for secondary sites  (Upper Silesia, West Macedonia) to advance understanding of the prospects for CO2 storage

Outputs

Output Title
D2.1 - Target area of Paris Basin Region (FR): Data inventory, seismic target and GAP analysis
Output description

This report presents the CO2 storage area in France to be fully characterised in PilotSTRATEGY and the target for the 3D seismic survey. This report also includes an inventory of available data in the selected area and a gap analysis.
