Multi-storey sequestration systems in Poland – safety and economy of the CCS Grzegorz PIE ŃKOWSKI Adam Wójcicki Pa ństwowy Instytut Geologiczny – Pa ństwowy Instytut Badawczy CCS – Carbon Capture and Storage Herein, we will present only the deep saline aquifers – most promising in terms of capacity and economy. However, geological characterization is still a seatback in case of such storage sites. We will show how to fill this gap - on the example of saline aquifers of the epicontinental Lower Jurassic of Poland. Minimum CCS requirements (according to CO2STORE) • Thickness of the seal - min. 50 m, however, integrity (continuity) of the seal is more important • Depth of the reservoir formation - 800 to 2000 m • Thickness of the reservoir formation: minimum 20-30 m • Porosity of the reservoir: minimum 10%, optimal 20% or more • Permeability of the reservoir: minimum 100 mD Safety – depends on thickness, properties ind integrity (latetral continuity) of the seal formation Geological structure of the Permian-Mesozoic basin of Poland (horizontal cut map at – 1 kilometre, the depth suitable for CO2 storage.

This can eliminate such a seal as the safe one How to correlate formations between the boreholes, if we do not have leading fossils? Key problem: security Social response/political decissions – crucial for the future of the CCS method FAQ: Can CO2 escape to the surface and endanger humans? Answer: seal integrity Can we prove it? Scientific reinforcement is needed Chemostratigraphy, carbon isotopes, comparison with marine profiles Can we identify carbon isotope fluctuations in atmospheric system? Yes, we can – in microscopic palynomaceral separates – phytoclasts, which are common in non-marine/marginal-marine Jurassic rocks in Poland Charcoal Cuticle Miospores (excluded from C Charcoal isotope samples) Miospores Cuticle (excluded Cuticle from C Wood isotope samples) 100 µm = 0,1 mm Polish-British high – resolution correlation Yorkshire Orbital cycles - carbon isotope correlation – palaeoclimate fluctuations, depositional conditions, rock types – proof that seal rock is isochronous (integral) over the whole Polish basin Shallowing epizodes – less permeable rocks are always separated by non-permeable mudstones NW POLAND UPPER TOARCIAN S POLAND LOWER TOARCIAN PLIENSBACHIAN This correlation can be traced over large areas, using seismic reflection profiles Kaszewy,Drzewica and Ciechocinek Fm. – multi-storey sequestration systems KASZEWY 1 KASZEWY 1 126 Diplocraterion retruzywny-protruzywny 1230 1155 3 ch. 140 ch. 3-5 cr.-f.p.
