“…Protest from some environmental NGOs has taken place in the UK. The influence of Green NGOs on public opinion is high in Germany and Poland, and is thought to be at least partially responsible for the long lasting debates in these countries [2]. In Denmark the opposition of the local environmental NGOs was so high that it resulted in prohibition of CO 2 storage onshore until at least 2020.…”

“…The EU GeoCapacity project estimated European storage capacity to be conservatively 127 Gt CO 2 , comprising 97 Gt in saline formations, 20 Gt in hydrocarbon fields and 1 Gt in coal seams. Storage capacity was estimated by the CGS Europe project partners as "sufficient at national level" in 17 countries [2]. The Norwegian partners in this project consider that Norway could potentially offer capacity to other countries for cross-border storage [4].…”

“…Therefore, the so‐called CCS Directive, Directive 2009/31/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of April 23, 2009 on the geological storage of carbon dioxide, was introduced into Polish law. Poland is one of the last European countries that has implemented the CSS Directive . The Geological and Mining Law was supplemented with a new chapter (4a), containing regulations for the underground carbon dioxide storage.…”

“…Several European countries prohibited ‒ or are planning to prohibit ‒ CO 2 storage, except for research purposes (Estonia, Ireland, Finland, Austria, Czech Republic, Latvia, and Poland) . Due to the small experience with CCS and unknown long‐term effects of underground storage of carbon dioxide, the underground storage of CO 2 in Poland will be limited to demonstration projects during the transitional period, that is until 2026.…”

Over 90% of Polish energy comes from burning fossil fuels, i.e., hard coal and lignite, responsible for high greenhouse gas (including CO2) emissions. The need to adapt to international agreements, expected increase of CO2 emissions, limited technological capabilities to reduce emissions, the energy intensity of industry and geological conditions allowing underground storage make carbon capture and storage (CCS) a viable option to reduce CO2 emissions. The implementation of CCS on a commercial scale depends on many factors, including the development of capture technology, transport options, and the geological structure. Its applicability is highly dependent on the regulations and economic, energy, and environmental policy. At the current stage of work, the biggest problems in the implementation of CCS include legal regulations, social acceptance, and cost reduction. The numerous political and economic benefits may balance the costs of CCS technology implementation. The captured CO2 can be used in the exploitation of oil fields and in large‐scale industrial processes. The implementation of CCS can contribute to the introduction of high‐efficient technologies and modernization of the national energy sector. The development of CCS can help to create new jobs, stimulate the development of the Polish economy and contribute to the development of research in this field. © 2015 Society of Chemical Industry and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd

The objective of this study was to determine the influence of the possible CO 2 geological storage in the Baltic Region on the composition and properties of host rocks to support more reliable petrophysical and geophysical models of CO 2 plume. The geochemical, mineralogical, and petrophysical evolution of reservoir sandstones of Cambrian Series 3 Deimena Formation and transitional clayey carbonate caprocks of Lower Ordovician Zebre Formation from two offshore structures in Latvia and Lithuania and two onshore structures in Latvia, induced by laboratory-simulated CO 2 geological storage, was studied for the first time in the Baltic Region. The geochemical, mineralogical, and petrophysical parameters were measured in 15 rock samples, before and after the alteration experiment. The diagenetic alterations of reservoir rocks were represented by carbonate cementation in the top of the onshore South Kandava structure, and quartz cementation and compaction, reducing the reservoir quality, in the deepest offshore E7 structure in Lithuania. The shallowest E6 structure offshore Latvia was least affected by diagenetic processes and had the best reservoir quality that was mainly preserved during the experiment. Carbonate cement was represented by calcite and ankerite in the transitional reservoir sandstones of very low initial permeability in the upper part of the South Kandava structure. Its dissolution caused a significant increase in the effective porosity and permeability of sandstones, a decrease in the weight of samples, bulk and matrix density, and P and S wave velocities, demonstrating short-term dissolution processes. Only slight geochemical changes occurred during the experiment in offshore reservoir sandstones. Minor dissolution of carbonate and clay cements, feldspar and some accessory minerals, and possible minor precipitation of pore-filling secondary minerals associated with slight variations in rock properties, demonstrating both short-term and long-term processes, were suggested. As a novelty, this research shows the relationship between diagenetic alterations of the Cambrian Series 3 Deimena Formation reservoir sandstones and their changes caused by the CO 2 injection-like experiment.
