Although many studies have investigated different aspects of an inadvertent release of CO2 from deep subsurface reservoirs into overlying groundwater aquifers, there are still questions that remain unanswered. This paper includes a short summary of the results obtained mainly from research activities and modeling efforts conducted over the last years at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in collaboration with Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
