2. Facts

Emissions of greenhouse gasses (GHG) will increase the average global temperature
by 1.1 to 6.4 ºC by the end of the 21st century, according to the Intergovernmental
Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
A global warming of more than 2 ºC increase in global average temperature will lead to
Schlumberger Public
serious consequences, and IPCC have therefore stated that global GHG emissions
should be reduced by 50 to 80 percent by 2050.
CO2 is the most important greenhouse gas, and anthropogenic CO2 emissions are
mainly a consequence of fossil fuels being the most important global energy sources.
Enhanced energy efficiency and increased renewable energy production will reduce
CO2 emissions, but according to the International Energy Agency (IEA), energy
efficiency and renewable energy do not have the potential to reduce global CO2
emissions as much as IPCC’s target, i.e. 50 to 80 percent by 2050.

• Demand rises by 13.6 mb/d between 2006 and
2015 compared to 11 mb/d between 2001 and
2010
• Assuming no change in modeled rate, 23.9

mb/d will be lost to decline between 2006 and
2015
• Planned OPEC and non –OPEC additions total
25 mb/d over the same period – 12.5 mb/d need
to be found.
• These figures are very sensitive to future
declines rates

10. Storage Fundamentals

• Capacity: (match to source & estimate plume shape)
• bulk volume (seismic) X porosity (logs) X “storage factor”
• Injectivity (how many wells)
• permeability from core, log & well test
• Containment (caprock integrity, fractures, wellbore integrity, faults)

23. Conclusions
23
• CCS presents the only existing technology that can complement
renewable and efficiency gains to achieve 50% emissions reduction by
2050.
Schlumberger Public
• The Skills and Technologies needed for successful CCS can be easily
exported from the E&P Industry
• Barriers to CCS projects are mainly regulatory and public awareness;
• Technological advances are needed to reduce costs of capture.
