A numerical study of transport and spreading of gases from natural analogues of gas-seepage through the seafloor
Enstad, Lars Inge; Alendal, Guttorm; Haugan, Peter Mosby (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2009-02)Natural leakages of CO2 are reported in the literature at mid ocean ridges and CH4 seepages in hydrocarbon rich ares. These could potentially serve as natural analogues of leakages from CO2 storages. In this study we have ... -
Topographic effects on CO2, diffusion and dissolution from the seafloor
Rygg, Kristin; Enstad, Lars Inge; Alendal, Guttorm; Haugan, Peter Mosby (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2009-02)At 3000 meters depth liquid CO2 is denser than seawater and hence will be stored as a “lake” on the deep ocean floor, which is expected to gradually be dissolved in seawater. Ocean currents and turbulence will influence ...
