The FP6 project CO2ReMoVe aims at creating a scientifically based reference for the monitoring and verification of CO2 geological storage. Through extensive R&D into monitoring, measurements and verification on multiple storage sites, CO2ReMoVE wants to prove the long term reliability and safety of geological CO2 storage and provide the R&D necessary for monitoring and verification leading to guidelines and standards for policy makers, regulators and industry. This is useful for CO2 storage to qualify in emission trading schemes. The four main sites used to test the methodologies and tools are In Salah, Sleipner, Snøhvit, and Ketzin as well as additional sites K12-B and Kaniow.
