CAGS CCS School 2

Sanya, China

The CAGS School 2 on geological storage of CO₂ is aimed at Graduate students and early career professionals working in or interested in geological storage of CO2.

The school was held in Sanya, China from 21-25 August 2011. The school covered various aspects of geological storage including:

Climate change background and challenges for CCS
CCS technology overview
Marine geology overview (focusing on offshore sedimentary basins)
Site investigation and characterization of CO₂ offshore geological storage
Simulation, analysis and storage capability assessment
Safety assessment and monitoring
Economic and social problems
Project implementation flow and typical examples
