CCS geological storage
We help clients navigate geological storage with a clear direction. Our team aids in delivering evidence, modelling and assurance to support investment decisions, secure permits and design reliable storage solutions.
How we can help you
Our geoscientists and reservoir engineers assess formation suitability using seismic interpretation, well log analysis, core evaluation and dynamic reservoir modelling. This enables a clearer understanding of injectivity, containment integrity, plume behaviour and storage capacity.
Well engineering for safe CO₂ injection
We design and assess injection wells that comply with regulatory requirements, including US Class VI standards. Our work includes:
- New CO₂ injection well design
- Legacy well integrity assessment
- Review of historical wellbore conditions and offset wells
- Pressure, temperature and phase-behaviour modelling
These assessments reduce the risk of leakage, communication and operational issues.
Integrated surface and subsurface design
We facilitate alignment between storage formations and surface systems, integrating the following:
- CO₂ capture, compression and dehydration facilities.
- CO₂ transport and pipeline infrastructure.
- Injection systems and plant design.
- Monitoring for plume position, monitoring for micro-seismic events, measurement and verification systems.
Through this process, we can help your storage solution meet long-term injection and operational requirements.
Pre-operational testing and characterisation
We develop and implement testing programmes to confirm and refine storage characteristics, including:
- Formation testing and core analysis.
- Injection and confining zone characterisation.
- Conducting baseline seismic, pressure and geochemical studies.
- Integrity testing for new and legacy wells.
These programmes establish the technical foundation for long-term assurance.
Post-injection monitoring and closure
- Plugging and abandonment procedures.
- Monitoring locations, methods and frequencies.
- Predicted plume extent and pressure dissipation.
- Reporting schedules and closure timeframes.
Regulatory compliance and permitting
We help clients meet regulatory requirements by preparing geological, engineering and environmental evidence for storage permits. These include:
- Storage permit documentation.
- Environmental assessments.
- Risk and impact evaluations.
- Regulatory submissions and compliance planning.
Our approach supports timely approvals and project credibility.
Commercial and economic considerations
We help clients understand the economic drivers of geological storage, including:
- Incentive and taxation regimes.
- Jurisdictional policy frameworks.
- Cost and revenue modelling.
- Investment-readiness for storage hubs
This supports effective budgeting, financing and commercial decision-making.
