Effective monitoring of long-term site stability for transparent carbon capture and storage hazard assessment
ENSURE will demonstrate the use of microseismic monitoring for seal integrity verification for large-scale carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) projects. Microseismic events provide direct insights into CO2 migration within the storage reservoir and potential caprock integrity challenges within the overburden. This goal will be achieved by developing advanced analysis tools and comparing data, existing and…
Molten Sodium Upgrading Pilot Plant
Refining Bitumen Without Sulfur Oxide Emissions Funded through Round 8: Oil and Gas in 2014, the project objective was to design, build and operate a 10 barrel per day (bpd) pilot plant using Enlighten Innovation’s (formerly called Field Upgrading) proprietary DSU® technology. This pilot aimed to scale the technology to a larger continuous process at…
MEG Low intensity Bitumen Upgrading – Field Pilot
Upgrading Bitumen with an Energy Efficient Process MEG Energy Corp. (MEG) developed an innovative process called HI-Q® to efficiently convert bitumen into crude oil suitable for transport by pipeline. Funded through Round 4: Carbon Capture plus Energy Technology in 2012, the primary goal of this project was to bridge the gap between the laboratory and…
