Additional information

Part of an international and multi-sector project, funded under EU grant MUSTANG (FP7/2007-2013:227286; total €10.6M with €0.5M to Edinburgh), this paper presents unique experimental results for the flow of CO2 through fractured caprock under in situ conditions of stress and temperature. The results demonstrate the importance of the state of CO2 on the integrity of the repository for storage and now impacts on the risk assessment of different storage site possibilities, (auli.niemi@geo.uu.se). The work initiated further investigation under EUPANACEA award (FP7/2007-2013:282900; total value €4.9M with €456k to Edinburgh), led by Jacob Bensabat (email available), Environmental and Water Resources Engineering Ltd.
