Application of WLAT and DREAM for Risk Based Monitoring Design
License(s):
Other (Open)Key Findings:
-
42 abandoned wells were evaluated for their potential to leak brine and/or CO2
-
The Well Leakage Analysis tool (WLAT) determined ten wellbores to be potential pathways for CO2
-
Brine leaked through every well; however, settled to the bottom of thief zones
-
The Designs for Risk Evaluation and Monitoring (DREAM) tool prioritized placement of six monitoring wells to detect CO2 leaks
-
Results show three monitoring locations capable of detecting all CO2 leaks
