The Challenge

Successful geological storage requires more than identifying available pore space. Storage formation quality, injectivity, fluid-rock interactions, geomechanical behaviour and seal integrity all influence how CO₂ will behave during injection and over the long term.

Reliable, representative laboratory data is essential to understand these interactions, quantify uncertainty and support safe and effective storage development.

Safe CO₂ storage depends on understanding the complete subsurface system.

Our Solution

Integrated Laboratory Evaluation for CO₂ Storage

We deliver integrated CCUS laboratory programmes that evaluate storage formation performance, injectivity and containment under representative subsurface conditions. Through advanced rock and fluid analysis, coreflood testing, geomechanical evaluation and technical interpretation, our specialists work alongside operators to generate the data needed to characterise storage sites, optimise injection strategies and reduce subsurface uncertainty.

Carbon Capture & Storage Capabilities

  • Storage Formation Characterisation

    Storage Formation Characterisation

    Characterise porosity, permeability, mineralogy and geological properties to understand storage capacity, reservoir quality and the controls on CO₂ flow and distribution.

  • CO₂ Injectivity & Rock–Fluid Interactions

    CO₂ Injectivity & Rock–Fluid Interactions

    Evaluate CO₂ injection under representative subsurface conditions to understand injectivity, multiphase flow behaviour and rock-fluid interactions that may influence storage performance.

  • Geomechanics, Caprock & Seal Integrity

    Geomechanics, Caprock & Seal Integrity

    Evaluate mechanical behaviour, stress response and caprock properties to understand containment integrity, potential migration pathways and the impact of CO₂ injection.

  • Integrated Storage Assessment

    Integrated Storage Assessment

    Combine geological, petrophysical, flow, geochemical and geomechanical laboratory data to support robust storage characterisation, modelling and informed injection decisions.
