Leakage - Wabamun Lake Area, Alberta, Canada

Geological storage of
CO2 in deep saline aquifers is an option for significantly reducing emissions
into the atmosphere. In November 2005, participants at a Workshop
on Geological Storage of CO2 at Princeton University agreed on the need
for a common test problem to assess various models for simulating the fate
of CO2 injected into the subsurface. The Alberta Geological Survey offered
to make available the data for the Wabamun Lake area in Alberta, Canada,
that were assembled for the purpose of developing a comprehensive model for
studying CO2 geological storage.
Part of the project was presented at the CO2SC conference in Berkeley, California
in March 2006. You can view the abstract and poster.
