Project: Development and testing of novel cement designs for enhanced CCS well integrity
| Acronym | CEMENTEGRITY |
| Project Topic | The leakage of CO2 through or along wellbores has been identified as one of the main challenges to secure subsurface CO2-storage. Currently used wellbore sealants, commonly based on Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), can be a large vulnerability during CO2-injection and -storage. Leakages may form through the cement, or along the cement-steel or cement-rock interfaces, as the result of chemical, thermal, or mechanical effects. Therefore, better sealants are needed, that can prevent leakages from forming, and that preferably demonstrate self-healing capabilities when leakage pathways do form. In order to successfully develop such materials, critical properties need to be identified that will ensure seal integrity, and practical methods and procedures for measuring these properties under in-situ conditions need to be developed, along with models for their extrapolation. |
