SINTEF investigates qualification and management of storage resources, CO2 storage behaviour, monitoring, leakage and remediation. We have a strong expertise related to caprock and well integrity. SINTEF has a complete infrastructure for integrated reservoir studies including reservoir technology and formation physics laboratories, necessary software and computer installations.
