Workflow for the installation of gas sensing equipment on site

This report will describe how the new spectroscopy-based instrument setups may be cross-calibrated and optimised across field sites to quantify gas, to derive gas flux, and how systems may be integrated with existing sensors, or optimised to monitor environmental leaks or bursts of gas activity from natural and engineered structures. This could be used for precise continuous environmental near-surface gas monitoring at field sites before, during and after operation.

Workflow for adsorption experiments on samples at geologic temperature and pressure conditions

Because of the relatively weak affinity of gases to geological (natural) samples as compared to commercial adsorption materials, the work will initially focus on the development of an appropriate experimental protocol to achieve the required measurement reproducibility.

The SHM system will then be validated via laboratory trials.

Validation of model for fluid migration against field-site data

Predictions made from the fluid migration models are tested and validated against micro-seismic and hydraulic data. The models will be adjusted as appropriate to fit the field-site data. Geomecon : geomecon will employ a software package based on the eXtended FEM (XFEM), i.e., roxolTM to simulate the propagation, initiation and reactivation of fractures; the software offers the unique possibility to understand the fracturing process during hydraulic fracturing campaigns applied in the extraction of unconventional oil and gas, which will enable the safe deployment of geo-energy operations in Europe. Within S4CE the software package will be calibrate against the existing well characterised data set from St. Gallen inclusive of data before, during and after gas production to gain further insight into the observed induced seismicity and allow explicit models of fracture propagation and fluid transport in sub-surface formations. These models are than implemented into large-scale fully coupled thermal-hydro-mechanical simulations using COMSOL Multiphysics, a finite element code, on the St Gallen data set to evaluate whether poroelastic effects or fast fluid flow along fractures caused the induced seismicity in St Gallen.

Report on the capability of studying rock samples at various

To quantify how rock-characterisation and fluid composition data change as a function of the pressure, S4CE will design and construct the laboratory apparatus that will allow us to connect to the high-pressure samples. The advanced high-pressure laboratory equipment is designed to replicate both (i) deep subsurface reservoir conditions and (ii) the transport of samples to the surface (decompression) to quantify gas release (hydrocarbons, gas content) and monitor the physical changes of gas-shale rock during decompression. S4CE will test the depressurisation method on synthetic /alternative samples in order to demonstrate the technique. This includes pressurising regular shale samples with known quantities of gas, and then decompressing them as planned in our custom-built equipment to quantify the amount of gas that would be extracted. The report will describe the site selection and subsurface geology providing context to the sample acquisition with this procedure, as well as a characterisation of the samples themselves.

Set of adsorption isotherms combined with permeability for selected rock samples

Static adsorption experiments will be conducted by using different gases (e.g., CO2 and light hydrocarbons) and two different techniques, namely a gravimetric method (High-Pressure Rubotherm Magnetic Suspension Balance) and a recently developed imaging-based method that uses X-ray micro CT. Experiments will be performed using various rock types, including carbonates with significant microporosity, shale and cements.

Model for fluid migration in the subsurface

To monitor fluid migration, the occurrence of induced seismicity as a signature for the local increase of hydraulic pressure will be used to map relative and absolute pressure changes over time. The derived model will permit fluid flow mapping in the subsurface during drilling (by drilling mud pressure, kicks and loss of fluid), testing, hydraulic stimulation and geothermal circulation.
