Total gas production from several natural gas wells is described. Water production is also given for the wells. The wells are located in the Big Lime/Ravencliff formations and the Pocahontas coal deposit. Plans for degassing various coal mines were also made and are described. Plans involved recovery of methane from an active mine with power generation, ...
The abandoned potash mine Wilhelmine--Carlsgluck represents the first mine in the Federal Republic of Germany to be used for crude oil storage. To date this project is unique in West Germany even though its storage capacity of approximately half a million cubic meters (about three million barrels) is small compared with huge cavern ...

Part 1 of v. 52, No. 2, covers statistics for 1966. The report is divided essentially into 3 parts--Resume of Oil Field Operations in 1966, Production Statistics of California Oil Fields in 1966, and Exploratory Wells Drilled in 1966. Most of the data presented are in tables having the following titles: Production by Districts; New Wells, Abandonments and Inspections; ...
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies remove carbon dioxide from flue gases for storage in geologic formations or the ocean. The study found that CCS is technically feasible and economically attractive within the range of carbon policies discussed domestically and internationally. Current costs are about $200 to $250 per ton of carbon, although ...
Geological storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) is likely to be an integral component of any realistic plan to reduce anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. In conjunction with large-scale deployment of carbon storage as a technology, there is an urgent need for tools which provide reliable and quick assessments of aquifer ...
