The various usage possibilities of hydrogen as an energy supplier, fuel or chemical feedstock demonstrate it’s potential for numerous application options across many industries. For these industries to effectively capitalise on their potential hydrogen usages, large scale, safe and cost-effective hydrogen storage is crucial.
Underground storage of Hydrogen in depleted oil and gas reservoirs and saline geological formations has the potential to address the cost and safety challenges of storing H2 in surface reservoirs.
Using our experience in underground storage of natural gas and CO2, SEAL has conducted feasibility studies and development design for CO2 storage in depleted oil and gas reservoirs for several projects in Europe and Australia.
Some of the key services that SEAL provides in this regard include:
- Feasibility study of storage in geological formations for a specific region
- Reservoir screening for underground CO2 storage
- Dynamic modelling of H2 injection and withdrawal
- Geomechanics
- Geochemistry
- Flow assurance studies
- Facility design and cost estimate
- Compositional analysis and optimisation
- Repurposing analysis of existing infrastructure
