Descriptions

The pilot site Ketzin is the longest-operating European onshore CO2 storage site and the only one in operation in Germany. Since the beginning of the storage activity at the end of June 2008, more than 56.000 tons of CO2 were successfully injected until December2011. CO2 is injected into a saline aquifer. It consists of 630 m to 650 m deep sandstone units of the Stuttgart Formation of Upper Triassic age. They were deposited in a fluvial environment. A sequence of about 165 m of overlaying mudstones and anhydrites is sealing the storage complex and act as a caprock. The research and development programme at Ketzin is among the most extensive worldwide in the context of geological CO2 storage. Research activities have produced a broad data base and knowledge concerning the storage complex at Ketzin as well as generic cognition This data publication compiles and reviews the operational data recorded at the Ketzin pilot site for 2011 (injection data: CO2 mass flow, temperatures, pressures, flow rate, etc.).
