alghannam, lujain (author)Depleted-gas sandstone reservoirs in the Dutch North Sea are being evaluated for offshore carbon storage under the ARAMIS project. The variability in geomechanical properties urges an investigation of the elastic parameters. This study involved cored samples and logs from five Slochteren and Solling formations wells. It aims to characterize...master thesis 2023

Riaño Castañeda, John (author)The increasing levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in the atmosphere are significantly contributing to climate change. One approach to mitigate this issue is through Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) techniques, which involve storing CO2 emissions underground. Depleted reservoirs are a potential option for subsurface CO2 storage. However, a...master thesis 2023

Mohammed Rajiv, Adila (author)The need to curb CO2 emissions has led to an increase in the utilization of CCS systems. These systems use pipelines for the transport of CO2. It is preferred that CO2 be transported in it’s dense form. But, this is not always the case as the phase in which CO2 exists is based on the operating conditions. In some cases, multiphase CO2 is...master thesis 2022

Kloosterman, Jaro (author)In this work, a novel globally implicit framework for reactive multiphase flow and transport has been implemented using the simulator DARTS and the geochemical package Reaktoro. This framework applies the Operator-Based Linearization (OBL) approach together with a Gibbs Energy Minimization (GEM) scheme to model complex nonlinear reactive...master thesis 2022

Fluttert, Bob (author)The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) believes that multiple solutions must be deployed simultaneously to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Carbon, Capture & Storage (CCS) is an unavoidable technique within this portfolio as an intermediate solution. CCS requires transport of CO<sub>2</sub> through...master thesis 2022

Stefan Stefanescu, Alexandru (author)During the last decade, there have been numerous pledges to reduce emissions. Europe has pledged to reach Net Zero in 2050: every projection to reach the target includes carbon capture technologies. A critical issue for the contribution of these technologies to achieve net zero targets is the transport of CO2 from sources to sinks, wherefore the...master thesis 2022

Hassing, Sverre (author)CO2 and H2S are reinjected at Hellisheiði, Iceland, to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases. An active-source seismic campaign was done in July, 2021, to image the reinjection reservoir with various seismic methods for consecutive monitoring. At the same time, passive-source seismic data was recorded for imaging.<br/>We process this passive...master thesis 2022

Mozas Maradiaga, Javier (author)This project is part of the larger REX-CO2 project, which assesses the re-usability of abandoned wells in reservoirs targeted for CCS operations. It comes as a necessity to also assess the abandoned wells that will not be re-purposed, by assessing the risk they pose in terms of allowing the stored CO2 to resurface across them, which is the focus...master thesis 2022

Rodriguez Angel, Elda (author)This research provides insight into the implementation of CCS in industrial production from a consumer perspective (i.e., the cost impact on the final product). The impact of implementing CCS in two different industries (e.g., cement and steel) to produce a final product is analyzed. Also, this research provides insight into CCS implementation...master thesis 2020

Kaljouw, Astrid (author)Climate change is a major global problem which is related to the increase in greenhouse gasses (GHG) emissions according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a potential solution to this problem. However, the implementation of CCS seems to be challenging. The port of Rotterdam also intended...master thesis 2019

Christiaanse, Christopher (author)This report presents the first simple and comprehensive method to effectively compare different infrastructure configurations for reservoirs that have been found suitable for long-term storage of carbon dioxide. Modelling the different transport phenomena along the chain, this study identified a fixed set of input parameters and used them to...master thesis 2018

Creusen, Michiel (author)Sequestration of carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) in depleted gas reservoirs is an attractive choice, especially in The Netherlands, to reduce CO<sub>2</sub> emissions into the atmosphere. Injection of CO<sub>2</sub> in the subsurface geological formations can distort local thermal, chemical and geomechanical equilibria. As such, it results in...master thesis 2018

Zuiderveen Borgesius, Freek (author)To limit global warming to 2 degrees Celsius in 2100, the European power sector needs to transform. Renewable energy capacity is required to reach this ambition, together with transmission and storage capacity to maintain grid stability. Carbon capture and storage could potentially decrease the required renewable energy capacity, while...master thesis 2017

Schut, Jelmer (author)A pilot for a large scale, fully integrated chain of CO2 capture, transport and storage (CCS) has been initiated in the port of Rotterdam. The initiative aims to demonstrate the technical and economic feasibility of CCS and show that it can be deployed on a large scale for power plants and energy-intensive industries that emit large volumes of...master thesis 2017

van den Akker, Joan (author)Worldwide, drastic reductions in greenhouse gas emissions are required to keep climate change to a more or less acceptable level. As of yet, the shipping industry has found no solution to this problem: it is expected that international shipping will be stuck with fossil fuels for the coming decades. <br/>A promising way to tackle the problem is...master thesis 2017

Ogink, M.H.L. (author)Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the main greenhouse gases that contributes to the current climate change. Its increasing share in the Earth atmosphere leads to an increase in global temperature. To prevent the sea level from rising and increased severity of extreme weather, many governments are now trying to reduce their carbon footprint. One...master thesis 2015

Van Eckeveld, A. (author)Enhanced greenhouse gas emisions in the past century contributed to the global average temperature rise. The emission of greenhouse gases, therefore, should be limited in the coming decades. One way to do so is by capturing the greenhouse gasses (like CO2) from industrial flue gases (post-combustion capture). This can be achieved in a chemical...master thesis 2013

De Mooij, J.W.C. (author)At the moment global climate change is one of the most prominent environmental and energy issues of our life time. Currently CO2 levels in the atmosphere stand at 387 ppm, almost 40% higher since the start of the industrial revolution and the highest for at least the last 650,000 years. About 96% of these carbon emissions are the result of using...master thesis 2010
