Hi Folks,

There are 2 news items today.

Firstly, there is an report available on the web that may interest people, titled “CO₂ for EOR on the Norwegian shelf: a case study”

https://www.bellona.no/data/f/0/41/09/5_9811_1/CO₂_rapport_engelsk_spellcheck-versjon.pdf

It is written by Bellona, who are presumably some sort of NGO or maybe a for-profit company. The file is large, scrolling through it is like swimming in treacle, and it is translated from Norwegian (!). Good luck.

Secondly, for anyone who feels like escaping the winter gloom there is the CO₂SC conference in Berkley, California March 20-22nd 2006 (March may be spring in Plymouth but it isn’t up here!). Titled “International Symposium  on site characterisation for CO₂ geological storage” there is a web-site at

https://esd.lbl.gov/CO₂SC/areainfo.html

The site has all the info you’d expect, along with a local weather forecast. It looked rather nice earlier today…

Cheers, Mark
