Feasibility Study of Geologic Sequestration of CO2 in Basalt Formations (Deccan Trap) in India
Nominators: India (lead) and United States
Recognized by the CSLF at its Berlin meeting in September 2005, the feasibility of CO2 storage in India’s basalt formations will be established using mainly noninvasive technologies like 2D/3D and MT studies, physical and chemical characterization of formations, kinetic studies, wire logging for temperature and pressure profiles, and detailed modeling. Subsequent detailed schemes will be developed for CO2 injection and monitoring in these basalt formations.
