CO2 optical sensor for geological storage monitoring (ENOS) / Project examples

Collaborative project ENOS (Enabling On-shore CO2 storage in Europe): IDIL Fibres Optiques is collaborating with other 28 partners and research institutes from 17 countries to provide a CO2 optical sensor.

CO2 optical sensor for geological storage monitoring (ENOS) summary

After the success of the collaborative project COPTIK with ADEME, IDIL offers its expertise in the validation of CO2 optical measurement technology for the European ENOS project.

IDIL is involved in managing leakage risks for protection of the environment and groundwater: i.e. geochemical monitoring and potential impact of leakage on potable aquifers, and more specifically, the subtask increasing the TRL of groundwater quality monitoring tools.

For that purpose, IDIL is developping a specific fiber optic probe connected to an interrogator and laser diode using an innovative fiber offering high performance in term of sensitivity and detection speed.

    ENOS Project

    ENOS project is CO2GeoNet initiative endorsed by y EERA-CCS JP

    Launch in September 2016, the main objective of the project is to enable the development of CO2 storage on-shore in Europe in order to prevent large quantities of CO2 from being released into the atmosphere. More information about ENOS

    IDIL is developing the optical probe to prove that the CO2 is not returning to the biosphere and to quantify leakage if it does occurs, by direct measurements.

    ENOS partners: BRGM, BGR, BGS, CGS, CIEMAT, CIUDEN, FLODIM, CGR, IDIL Fibres Optiques, IRIS, NHAZCA, OGS, SGIDS, SILIXA, SOTACARBO, TNO, UNIROMA1, UNOTT, CO2GEONET, GBA, GEOECOMAR
