Summary: | An overview is given of various currently applied monitoring techniques for CO2 storage. Techniques are subdivided in correspondence to their applicability for monitoring three distinct realms. These are: - the atmosphere and the near- surface; - the overburden (including faults and wells); - the reservoir with its seals. Another subdivision can be made with respect to time, i.e. first monitoring during the injection and storage process and subsequently monitoring for the long term (after abandonment of the field). In this perspective, the importance of characterisation and monitoring before injection is addressed.
Les techniques de monitoring actuellement appliquées au stockage de CO2 sont présentées. Ces méthodes sont regroupées en 3 familles selon leur zone d'application : - l'atmosphère et la zone souterraine proche de la surface ; - les couches recouvrant le réservoir ; - le réservoir et ses pièges. Une autre façon de regrouper ces techniques peut être envisagée en fonction de la chronologie, d'abord pendant l'injection et le processus de stockage, puis à long terme (après abandon du champ). Dans cette optique, l'importance de la caractérisation et du monitoring avant injection est soulignée. |
