Reservoir Screening for CO2 Sequestration
This online engineering PDH course provides an overview of how to screen reservoirs for CO2 sequestration.
This course provides instructions to estimate volumes of CO2 that may be sequestered in abandoned natural gas reservoirs and in aquifers. Since limited information is available on many abandoned natural gas reservoirs, an additional portion of the course will show how to estimate CO2 sequestration in those instances.
This 5 PDH online course is applicable to petroleum, chemical, and geological engineers who are involved with CO2 sequestration projects.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Learning about the importance of screening to a CO2 sequestration project
- Familiarizing with the basic CO2 properties, and the Ideal Gas Law
- Knowing how to calculate reservoir volumes, and the gas formation volume factor
- Understanding the meaning of standard conditions, and critical pressure and temperature of natural gas
- Learning how to estimate the gas deviation factor for natural gas, and the volumes available for CO2 sequestration in an aquifer
- Estimating the volume of CO2 in the reservoir at sequestration pressure using detailed reservoir information
- Estimating the volume of CO2 sequestered in a reservoir using limited information
- Calculating the CO2 sequestration volume at standard conditions
