Man-made versus natural CO2 leakage : a 400 k.y. history of an analogue for engineered geological storage of CO2
Reviewer commented “the work is innovative ... the first to compare natural versus well bore-related leakage ... and has important implications for understanding potential leakage processes and impacts at geologic carbon sequestration sites”. Press coverage included the Metro (4th largest circulation UK newspaper). GEOLOGY has been the #1 ranked "geology" journal for the last seven years. The long-term integrity of abandoned wells was highlighted in the Royal Society and Royal Academy of Engineering report into shale gas. Early research was part of the body of work resulting in Shipton winning the Geological Society of London 2010 William Smith Fund (http://www.geolsoc.org.uk/About/History/Awards-Citations-Replies-2001-Onwards/2010-Awards-Citations-Replies#wsf).
