Assessment of CO2 storage capacity and high-quality corridors for potential CCS projects in the central part of the VMM basin, Colombia

Keywords: Forward Stratigraphic Modeling, Static model, storage capacity, CO2, Common Risk Segment, Middle Magdalena Valley

Abstract

There are numerous industrial processes and energy generators that emit CO2 into the atmosphere, which are still in an incipient state of technological transition for their reduction. A global expanding alternative involves storing CO2 for long periods (> 1,000 years), in geological environments such as saline aquifers. Thus, studies on a semi-regional scale are fundamental to reduce the uncertainty regarding location of sites with the best storage capacities and high Chance of Successful. The use of Forward Stratigraphic Modeling (FSM) workflows to populate static models with properties is a time-versatile tool to evaluate the prospectivity of subsurface resources over large areas, as required for CO2 storage. These workflows, coupled to Common Risk Segment Analysis, have been applied in a basin with a long history of O&G exploration and production, the Middle Magdalena Valley basin in Colombia, proving their effectiveness in the selection of areas along prospective corridors to store CO2, in Mesozoic and Cenozoic formations. Preliminary estimates suggest that the Meso-Cenozoic formations in this part of the basin may reach a Theoretical CO2 Storage Capacity close to 830 GTon CO2 and an Effective CO2 Storage Capacity of 293 GTon CO2.
