How much do you know about carbon capture and sequestration? Read this detailed analysis on how it works and the methods for it being monitored.

The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has approved a major carbon capture and storage project (CCS) in Lea County, New Mexico. This project is thought to be the largest of its kind in the Permian Basin. Carbon dioxide (CO2) will be sequestered from Lucid Energy Group’s Red Hills gas processing complex (see Major CCS project given the green light in New Mexico).

Update : An area of the Permian Basin has been categorized as a “Seismic Response Area” (SRA) after a recent magnitude 4.2 or 4.5 earthquake near Stanton, Texas.

Multistage stimulation will revolutionize the Geothermal industry (see https://jpt.spe.org/why-multistage-stimulation-could-transform-the-geothermal-industry) and open up the west to producing energy on the order of 60 gigawatts of energy if these oil and gas techniques work for geothermal wells!

ISTI’s team has decades of experience with the AQMS software that was used to monitor the earthquakes and other ground-shaking events from this eruption. ISTI’s experts helped the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory to get this software tuned and operational on a Linux platform 6 months before the eruption began.

ISTI helped install and coordinate the upgrade of the Puerto Rico Seismic Network’s (PRSN) software to the latest version of the ANSS Quake Monitoring System.

The work will be presented at the 2021 AGU.
