One May 12, 2020, PTRC held a webinar focused on our Aquistore project. With over 96 participants in attendance, the update was well received. The Aquistore site represents the largest and most extensive field laboratory in the world for the measurement, monitoring and verification of injected carbon dioxide. The project recently surpassed 300,000 tonnes of stored carbon dioxide from SaskPower's coal-fired Boundary Dam Post-Combustion capture facility. The Petroleum Technology Research Centre is posting that webinar in full, with information on the research program and MMV findings.  Feel free to contact us directly if you have any questions.
