They range in scale from 1:625 000 for the national maps of the hydrogeology of England & Wales, and Scotland down to 1:25 000 for some smaller regional maps. The BGS also hold a limited collection of international hydrogeological maps from all parts of the world. Available hydrogeological maps -
Saline water is arbitrarily defined as water containing more than 1000 milligrams per liter of dissolved solids. Saline ground water is known to underlie about two‐thirds of the 48 states. Locally, aquifers yield saline ground water in profuse quantities, some of which is used by industry, particularly for cooling. Generally, however, saline water has been considered a …
Figure 6 – Simplified version of WHYMAP's Hydrogeological World Map (BGR and UN, 2008). View a larger version of this figure. 1.3.6 Renewable and Non-Renewable Groundwater Resources. Aquifer recharge corresponds to the inflow of water into an aquifer system 1.
Specifically, Aquifer I features a basal depth ranging from 5 to 53 m, Aquifer II from 43 to 217 m, Aquifer III from 63 to 439 m, and Aquifer IV has its base depth ranging from 72 to 619 m. Figure 3

The saline aquifer model is developed with a compositional reservoir simulator (CMG-GEM, version 2023.20), which includes component transport, thermodynamic equilibrium, material balance, and phase equilibrium equations to represent the system's interaction between the brine and CO 2 (Nghiem et al., 2004, Norouzi et al., 2021).

Assessment of transboundary aquifers of the world - vulnerability arising from human water use
Caption: First world CO2 storage site in deep saline aquifer in Sleipner, North Sea (Norway). Natural gas is extracted 2 500m deep from the drilling platform and separated from the CO2 it contains on the gas processing platform. The CO2 is then injected into the sand aquifer of …
The potential aquifer must have impervious caprock, ensuring the confinement of the injected gas [33]. Fig. 2 shows the worldwide distribution of sedimentary basins [46]. Sedimentary basins are the main host for saline aquifers around the world and are likely the most suitable formations for hydrogen geological storage.
Groundwater continues to gain recognition as a critical natural resource issue in Colorado. The state, through the Colorado Water Conservation Board (CWCB), is developing and implementing a general water plan with its supporting Analysis …
Saline Aquifers. Saline aquifers are geological formations consisting of water permeable rocks that are saturated with salt water, called brine. Super-critical carbon dioxide (CO 2), CO 2 that has been pressurized to a phase between gas and liquid, may be injected into a saline aquifer where it may either dissolve in the brine, react with the dissolved minerals or the surrounding rock, or ...
Broadly defined, deep saline aquifers are underground, water-filled strata. They are distributed widely across much of the world (Fig. 3.1 and 3.2) and are important potential CO 2 repositories because many are large, generally contiguous reservoirs that may be capable of storing large volumes of CO 2 (Hitchon et al., 1999).These aquifers, beneath both continents …

Geological Sequestration of CO 2 in Saline Aquifers- An Indian Perspective By A. K. Bhandari, (bhandari_ak@yahoo)17th January, 2013, New Delhi ACBCCS- 2013
Seawater intrusion threatens freshwater resources by rendering coastal groundwaters too saline for drinking or irrigation 1,2.Over ~100 million Americans and thousands of farms in coastal counties ...
Therefore, the behaviour and patterns of the D-Z parameters in space established the existence of saline water and freshwater aquifer structures in the coastal aquifers over a vast area. Location ...
Saltwater intrusion into the coastal aquifer, a phenomenon brought by the flow of seawater into freshwater aquifers originally caused by groundwater extraction near the coast, has long been recognised as a major concern around the world. In this study, we employed geophysical and geochemical techniques to map and provide evidences that the coastal …
The usage of renewable energies has been significantly increasing over time [1].However, it is predicted that the share of fossil-based fuel (coal, natural gas, and oil) in supplying energy demand will still be 78 % in 2040 [2].CO 2 is a major greenhouse gas (GHG) that contributes to the warming of the Earth's atmosphere. Fossil fuel combustion releases CO …

one of 26 in the world) and to date has captured over 6 MT of CO 2. The original November 2010 application for Shell Quest consisted of a map area of approximately 90 townships with only eight control wells, with several ranging in vintage from 1948 to 1955. Quest is currently injecting into the Basal Cambrian Sand (BCS) saline aquifer .

Table 2 presents the CO 2 sequestration capacity of different reservoirs in North America. It can be seen that saline aquifers in North America have the dominant role in large-scale CO 2 sequestration [3, 4].In China, the CO 2 sequestration potential of saline aquifers is also much higher than that of depleted oil and gas reservoirs and coal seams. Table 3 shows …
