Within the Skagerrak-Kattegat region up to 14 Mt of CO₂ can annually be captured from power and industry sources. To establish a CCS infrastructure in the region it is necessary to identify and characterize potential CO₂ storage sites. Initial screening of the region has revealed large aquifers in the Upper Triassic Gassum Formation. In dynamic simulation studies 250 Mt of CO₂ were injected into the Gassum Formation over a period of 25 years. Identification and analysis of parameters that affect CO₂ storage capacity were performed. Parameters important for the migration speed and the dissolution rate of CO₂ in open dipping aquifers were investigated by a series of simulations on generic tilted reservoir models.
