Improving CO₂ well integrity by studies of materials from Ketzin wells

The overall goal is to maximize the learning potential from Ketzin, which provides a unique opportunity to access field samples. By analyzing recovered downhole materials and compare to available data from logging-and monitoring tools, we can answer questions such as:
– When, where, why and how does materials fail when they are present in a CCS well environment?
– When and how should various matrials be remediated?
– Which materials are best suited for use in CO₂ wells?
– How can (pre-)failure situations best be detected from downhole logging and monitoring data?
– What is the reliability of today’s instruments?
– How can monitoring technology be advanced
