Concerns over greenhouse-gas emissions and their impact on the environment are increasing, driving the need for effective carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) solutions. Civotec specializes in providing geotechnical and geological expertise to help organizations reduce their carbon footprint and meet global carbon neutrality goals by 2050.
We offer a comprehensive suite of services tailored to address both aboveground and subsurface challenges in carbon capture and storage projects. Our experienced team of engineers provides innovative solutions to reduce emissions, assess environmental risks, and develop compliance strategies. Our services include:
Conduct detailed geohazard assessments to identify potential risks such as seismic activity, fault lines, and groundwater aquifers.
Develop mitigation strategies to ensure the safe and efficient operation of carbon storage sites.
Perform in-depth geologic site characterizations to evaluate the suitability of subsurface formations for CO2 storage.
Assess formation properties, in-situ stresses, natural fracture networks, seal capacity of cap rock, and formation pressure.
Develop static reservoir and seismic models to predict the behavior of CO2 plumes and ensure safe injection and storage.
Use subsurface visualization tools for real-time monitoring and visualization.
Implement advanced monitoring, verification, and accounting techniques to confirm the permanent storage of CO2.
Utilize real-time data processing and plume monitoring to provide reliable control over the reservoir.
Prepare and submit Underground Injection Control (UIC) Class VI permit applications for CO2 sequestration projects.
Assist clients in achieving certification under the California Air Resources Board (CARB) Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS).
