    Members of the CCUS Technical Section:  

    Attached please find the draft of the Storage Resources Management System (SRMS) for your review and comments. 

    The glossary has not been updated at this time, it is a carryover of the 2007 Petroleum Resources Management System - (It will be finished in the next couple weeks.)

    There are definitions at the end of the text prior to the tables that I have copied at the bottom of this email.  The only comments in the document are to denote terms that are updated from a draft PRMS document that will be released in 2017.  We have not decided as a subcommittee how to include information from the next version of PRMS.

    New Definitions to be included in the Glossary:

    Stored quantities: part of estimated Capacity for a geologic formation that has injected CO2 occupying pore volume; can be reported as mass or volume.

    Storable quantities: part of an estimated pore volume of a geologic formation that is accessible to CO2 via a CO2 injection well (i.e. a storage project) sometime in the future; can be reported as

    mass or volume.  To be considered a storable quantity, an assessment of the longevity of the stored CO2 is required; i.e. a seal within a structure or regional dip will be part of analyses. 

    CO2 stream: Fluid injected that is predominantly CO2

    Operator:  entity that has ownership and responsibility of the storage site and project

    Project: CO2 storage project. 

    CO2 generator:  Source of CO2; typically anthropogenic, industrial sites such as a coal fired power plant, cement plant, ethanol plant, and natural gas processing.

    Storage Formation (or Formation): geologic interval in which storage quantities are identified. 

    Kindly return your comments directly to me, no later than Tuesday, December 20. 

    Thank you,
