Zusammenfassung:
The joint project CLEAN was a Research & Development (R&D) action with its scientific programme accompanying a pilot Enhanced Gas Recovery (EGR) project designed by GDF SUEZ E&P Deutschland GmbH (GDF SUEZ) in cooperation with Vattenfall Europe. It was funded by Germanys Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) in the period from 1 July 2008 to 31 December 2011. Within the framework of this R&D project a total of 16 German scientific and economic institutions participated. The project was set up as pilot to investigate the processes relevant to EGR by the injection of CO2 into a subfield of the almost depleted Altmark natural gas field (Germany). Despite the setback that permission for active injection was not granted by the mining authority during the period of the project, important results fostering the understanding of processes linked with EGR were achieved. The CLEAN results provide the technological, logistic and conceptual prerequisites for implementing a CO2-based EGR project in the Altmark and provide a benchmark for similar projects in the world.
