Dear Peter,
thank you very much for your synoptical explanation. I know that it was ground of CCS onowledge. I am geologist working in CCS over 7 years. My personal opinion is that role of geology in this issue is not in any case correct considered and interpreted. I mean structural geology mainly. I have noticed, that even some of well experienced CCS persons have very shallow brained attitude to this subject. Now we have sufficient data for utilization by resevoir engeneers, (geochemical, geotechnical, rheological, physical....) but very often we cannot to compile a serious input static geological model of storage site, although is concened depleted hydrocarbon deposit. The meaning role of structural geology in the stage of injection and especially in the closure storage site is for you known, I have wanted to assign only, that position of structural geology in whole CCS chain should be much more emphasized. Thank you once more.
