1 CO 2 Storage Associated with Unconventional/Shale Wayne Rowe N. America Decarbonization Projects Presented at the 16 th Annual CO 2 EOR Carbon Mgmt Workshop Midland, Texas Dec 3, 2018

2 Slide 2 OUTLINE Conventional CO 2 Storage Unconventional CO 2 Storage Unconventional CO 2 EGR Shale Resource and CO 2 Availability Impact of 45Q Tax Credit Enhancement

3 Slide 3 CO 2 Storage Geologic Storage Reservoir Types DEEP SALINE FORMATIONS DEPLETED O&G RESERVOIRS (EOR) UNMINEABLE COAL BASALT AND OTHER VOLCANIC OTHER Cira 2005

4 Slide 4 Storage in Conventional VS Unconventional (Shales) Conventional Reservoirs Structural Capillary Solubility Mineral trapping MCO 2 e = A h φ ρco 2 E Unconventional/Shale Reservoirs CO 2 Adsorption onto organic materials and clay minerals ranging from 20% to 80% of original-gas-in-place (OGIP) CO 2 is adsorbed preferentially over methane (CH4) (up to a 5:1 ratio by molecule) potential added benefit of enhanced gas recovery (EGR)

5 Slide 5 Theoretical Langmuir Isotherms Shale Storage Capacity - Adsorption Lab Analysis using experimental adsorption data and adsorption models Analysis of carbon dioxide sequestration in shale gas reservoirs by using experimental adsorption data and adsorption models Sukru Merey*, Caglar Sinayu

6 Adsorption Tendancy

7 Slide 7 Organic Matter & Clay Mineral Heterogeneity Shales contain porous solid organic matter Small pore size means different transport physics Pore geometry and chemistry control transport Heterogeneity at micron length scale

8 Organic Matter & Clay Mineral Heterogeneity quartz feldspar clay minerals organic matter various pores.

9 Slide 9 Shale Characterization Shale Gas Formations and Their Potential for Carbon Storage: Opportunities and Outlook Roozbeh Khosrokhavar & Steve Griffiths & Karl-Heinz Wolf Total Organic Carbon (TOC) And Vitrinite Reflectance (VR) VR of 0.5%-0.6% Oil Generation, VR of 0.85%-1.1% Gas Generation

10 Slide 10 Marcellus CH 4 and CO 2 Adsorption Isotherms Michael Godec et al. / Energy Procedia 63 ( 2014 )
