Abstract
For the safe CO2 geologic sequestration, best practices to monitor the CO2 storage is outlined in the purpose to share the experience of the first onshore project over the world.
The CO2 storage and monitoring is under the Kyoto protocol and the success of CO2 capture and storage in Krechba saline aquifer is a key role in future onshore storage to reduce greenhouse gases GHG, essentially the deal is done and the agreement is signed in the COP21 Paris and recently COP22 in Morocco which targeted global warming around 1.5 degrees Celsius to tackle climate change.
In this paper surface and subsurface monitoring performed at Krechba site will be detailed, six monitoring techniques currently are performed as best practice to store safely the CO2 underground.
Taking in consideration the long-term uncertainty of the storage process and in order to respect the regulation, experimental approach should be undertaken to allow adaptation to external as well as internal standards.
