sec.6 Requirements for proposed test plan for GHG storage injection testing

For sections 80 (3) and 161 (3) of the Act , a proposed test plan for GHG storage injection testing must include the following information— where and how the proposed testing will be carried out; details of the substance proposed to be injected, including— whether the substance is composed of a GHG stream or water; and if a GHG stream is proposed to be injected—information about the composition of the GHG stream; and the proposed volume of the substance to be injected; and the proposed rate of injection of the substance; and the expected migration pathway of the substance after its injection; the operations and techniques to be used to monitor and verify the behaviour of the substance during the proposed testing; an assessment of whether there is any risk to public health or the environment associated with the proposed testing; how any risks mentioned in paragraph (d) will be mitigated or prevented.

• (a) where and how the proposed testing will be carried out;
• (b) details of the substance proposed to be injected, including— (i) whether the substance is composed of a GHG stream or water; and (ii) if a GHG stream is proposed to be injected—information about the composition of the GHG stream; and (iii) the proposed volume of the substance to be injected; and (iv) the proposed rate of injection of the substance; and (v) the expected migration pathway of the substance after its injection;
• (i) whether the substance is composed of a GHG stream or water; and
• (ii) if a GHG stream is proposed to be injected—information about the composition of the GHG stream; and
• (iii) the proposed volume of the substance to be injected; and
• (iv) the proposed rate of injection of the substance; and
• (v) the expected migration pathway of the substance after its injection;
• (c) the operations and techniques to be used to monitor and verify the behaviour of the substance during the proposed testing;
• (d) an assessment of whether there is any risk to public health or the environment associated with the proposed testing;
• (e) how any risks mentioned in paragraph (d) will be mitigated or prevented.
• (i) whether the substance is composed of a GHG stream or water; and
• (ii) if a GHG stream is proposed to be injected—information about the composition of the GHG stream; and
• (iii) the proposed volume of the substance to be injected; and
• (iv) the proposed rate of injection of the substance; and
• (v) the expected migration pathway of the substance after its injection;
