Abstract

The average CO₂ emission growth rate of Korea is 1.4% which is second highest among OECD countries. The Korean government plans to start CO₂ injection by 2018, so in order to develop ready to inject sequestration site by that time, there is a need to assess storage sites technically, economically, and from safety point of view. Three potential basins namely Kunsan, Jeju and Ulleung are thought to have good CO₂ storage capacity in Korea. In this study, CO₂ storage potential in sedimentary basins of Korea is calculated along with their economic analyses. The results show that Ulleung basin has the maximum storage capacity and low storage cost among other basins. These results provide the basis for decision making while selecting storage site for commercial sequestration that offer maximum storage capacity and least storage cost.
