GREENHOUSE GAS RESERVOIR SYSTEMS AND PROCESSES OF SEQUESTERING GREENHOUSE GASES

摘要

This invention relates to greenhouse gas reservoir systems and processes of storing and/or sequestering greenhouse gases. The greenhouse gas reservoir system includes a shale layer for containment of greenhouse gas and the shale layer has a vertical permeability of less than about 0.1 millidarcies. The greenhouse gas reservoir system includes a sandstone layer disposed at least partially below the shale layer and the sandstone layer delivers the greenhouse gas into the shale layer. The system includes a borehole for injection of the greenhouse gas into the sandstone layer.
