摘要：The concept of utilising available pore space in deep salinesandstone aquifers for storage of CO2 was recognised inthe late 1980s. In 1996, the first commercial CO2 storageproject began with injection into sandstones of the UtsiraFormation in Norway. The formation is located above theSleipner Formation from where the Sleipner field producesnatural gas. The project was initiated due to a high CO2content of the natural gas, which was subjected to a Norwegian offshore carbon tax. The natural gas is producedon the Sleipner platform where the CO2 is separated, captured and reinjected from a neighbouring platform. Thepotential for using the technology to reduce CO2 emissionsfrom large stationary point sources initiated many researchprojects aimed at mapping areas with potential CO2 storage capacity around the world.
