Alabama Project Testing Potential for Combining CO2 Storage with Enhanced Methane Recovery

Green Car Congress

Earlier, an existing coalbed methane well operated by El Paso Exploration & Production had been converted for CO 2 injection, and four wells drilled to monitor reservoir pressure, gas composition, water quality, and the CO 2 plume. The final phase, the development phase (2007–2018), will conduct large-volume carbon storage tests.
