Abstract

Carbon capture and storage is a key mitigation strategy proposed for keeping the global temperature rise below 1.5 °C. Offshore storage can provide up to 13% of the global CO₂ reduction required to achieve the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change goals. The public must be assured that potential leakages from storage reservoirs can be detected and that therefore the CO₂ is safely contained. We conducted a controlled release of 675 kg CO₂ within sediments at 120 m water depth, to simulate a leak and test novel detection, quantification and attribution approaches. We show that even at a very low release rate (6 kg day⁻¹), CO₂ can be detected within sediments and in the water column. Alongside detection we show the fluxes of both dissolved and gaseous CO₂ can be quantified. The CO₂ source was verified using natural and added tracers. The experiment demonstrates that existing technologies and techniques can detect, attribute and quantify any escape of CO₂ from sub-seabed reservoirs as required for public assurance, regulatory oversight and emissions trading schemes.
