Tracking industrial scale CO2 mineralisation at the CarbFix2 site, Iceland using a combination of geochemical tracing and reservoir modelling

该项目将产生与全球努力在玄武岩中设计安全的二氧化碳储存相关的新知识。您将接受稳定和稀有气体同位素收集和分析以及构造油藏建模方面的培训。您将应用这些技术来提供冰岛CarbFix2现场矿化和溶解的二氧化碳数量的量化。这旨在更好地了解玄武岩中二氧化碳矿化的关键控制因素，并确定是否可以通过定向注入策略来增强矿化作用。

This project will generate new knowledge relevant to worldwide efforts to engineer secure CO2 storage in basalts. You will be trained in stable and noble gas isotope collection and analysis along with structural reservoir modelling. You will apply these techniques to provide a quantification of the amount of CO2 mineralised and dissolved at the CarbFix2 site in Iceland. This aims to provide greater understanding of the key controls on CO2 mineralisation in basalts and determine if mineralisation can be enhanced through targeted injection strategies.
