Investigating Sequestration Potential of Carbonate Rocks during Tertiary Recovery from a Billion Barrel Oil Field , Weyburn , Saskatchewan : the Geoscience Framework ( IEA Weyburn CO 2 Monitoring and Storage Project )
Introduction In Western Canada the application of CO2 injection for enhanced, ‘tertiary’ oil recovery is a relatively recent addition to the arsenal available to reservoir engineers. The first successful application of CO2 as a miscible fluid in Western Canada began in 1984 at Joffre Field, a Cretaceous marine siliciclastic reservoir in southern Alberta. A significant portion of the remaining proven conventional oil reserves in Western Canada, however, reside in large mature Paleozoic carbonate fields, such as the Mississippian Weyburn Field in SE Saskatchewan (Figure 1). In combination with economically dictated tertiary recovery schemes, these large fields could provide attractive geologic sites for future sequestration of greenhouse gases. An immediate challenge to geoscientists is to assess the ability of these geologic containers to store CO2 for geologically significant lengths of time.
Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Development at Topsoe Fuel Cell A/S and Riso̸ National Laboratory
The consortium of Topsoe Fuel Cell A/S and Risoe National Laboratory has up-scaled its production capacity. Stacks are based on a compact thin plate multilayer design with metallic interconnects and 12x12 cm{sup 2} or 18x18 cm{sup 2} foot print. Larger (500 cm{sup 2}) cells are currently under evaluation. Stacks have been tested successfully for more than 13000 hours. Several 50 or 75 cell stacks in the 1+ kW power range have been tested successfully at a fuel utilisation of up to 92%. Multi stack modules consisting of four 75 cell stacks have been tested for more than 4000 hours with pre-reformed natural gas and modules consisting of twelve stacks are under development. Our SOFC program comprises development of next generation cells with porous ferritic steel is used as a cheap, ductile, robust cell support and the electrolyte is based on scandia-doped zirconia with improved durability. In collaboration with Waertsilae, a 24-stack prototype based on natural gas is being tested. The range of fuels have further been extended to include ethanol and coal syn-gas by development of a new coke resistant catalyst suitable for future SOFC technology.
