| Abstract | Key components of any Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) project are
measurement, monitoring and verification (MMV). Each CCS project must
demonstrate that the project is being executed safely and according to
plan. DigiMon is an Accelerating CCS Technologies (ACT) project, which
aims to develop an affordable, flexible, societally embedded MMV system
for industrial-scale subsurface CO2 storage, the DigiMon system. Within
the DigiMon project, a Technology Readiness Assessment (TRA) was
conducted. A TRA is a systematic process required for efficient and
successful technology integration in a system under development.
Performing a TRA can reduce uncertainties, provide a better
understanding of project cost, schedule risk, and improve technology
investment decision-making. This paper presents a TRA of relevant Critical Technology Elements (CTEs) for developing a low-cost, early-warning CCS site monitoring system. The TRA covers technologies which are expected to provide information during the project lifecycle, from baseline site characterisation to long-term containment. Numerous CTEs were identified and selected according to their suitability to be rolled out at large-scale, offshore CO2 storage site operations. Preference was given to high TRL technologies that can be readily applied and technologies that appear highly relevant for application in the near future, such as distributed sensing technologies. |
