KONGSBERG, Norway – Kongsberg Digital and Computer Modelling Group (CMG) have received funding from the CLIMIT-Demo Program to progress simulation software development for CO2 injection into depleted oil and gas reservoirs and saline aquifers.
The funds are in addition to support secured from numerous energy companies and Gassnova.
By combining Kongsberg Digital's transient multiphase flow simulator LedaFlow with CMG's GEM reservoir simulator, the two-year GELECO2 joint industry project aims to develop an intuitive controller program which can integrate and manage the interaction between currently separated well and reservoir systems.
Improvements are also planned to both simulators to achieve an accurate integrated tool for CO2 injection simulations.
CLIMIT-Demo is Norway’s national program for the research, development, and demonstration of CO2 Capture and Storage technology.
