Abstract
Large potentials for CO2 storage were demonstrated in previous studies in Brazil. This study aims to estimate the CO2
storage capacity in the Campos Basin , Southeast Brazil, in order to provide refined values to support CCS
planning in the country. The results, based on field/reservoir level data show that there is a large potential for CO2
storage (ca. 950Mt) in the 17 assessed oil fields in the basin, and 75% of this storage capacity is found in sandstone
reservoirs.
