gas storage

This paper describes the application of learnings from an offshore project in the Caspian to an underground gas storage project to enhance drilling performance.

Several options exist for large-scale hydrogen underground storage: lined caverns, salt domes, saline aquifers, and depleted oil/gas reservoirs. In this paper, a commercial reservoir simulator was used to model cyclic injection/withdrawal from saline aquifers and depleted oil/gas reservoirs. The results revealed the need to contain the stored volume with an integrated…

The coupled geomechanical and dynamic flow simulation work flow described in this paper relies on a multidisciplinary approach to meet future peak gas demands and support clean-energy initiatives.

The objective of this study is to improve the current understanding of the hydrodynamic processes arising when hydrogen is stored in subsurface porous media. This work compares the use of two cushion gases, namely carbon dioxide and methane, for hydrogen storage in a synthetic aquifer.

The authors describe an integrated subsurface characterization and monitoring approach for the construction of underground gas storage while ensuring long-term stability.

This paper reveals the potential of an in-situ generated gel system designed with a bionanoparticle that has tunable strength and gelation reversibility in porous media for underground applications.

This paper describes a technique used to derive stresses for a gas-storage field and then calibrate the 1D mechanical earth model of the field.

For an industry once fueled by the law of supply and demand, the new economic reality has brought new rules.

This paper discusses studies conducted on two California offshore fields that may be abandoned in the near future. These studies examined the feasibility of repurposing these fields for offshore gas storage by using their reservoir voidage and existing pipeline facilities.

The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration has announced an additional comment period on its 19 December 2016 interim final rule that established minimum federal safety standards for underground natural gas storage facilities.
