The Gulf Coast Carbon Center (GCCC) convened its winter sponsors' meeting at the Bureau January 30–31. The consortium, whose mission is the study of geologically sequestering CO2 in the deep subsurface and dissemination of that information to the public, heard presentations on a wide range of related topics from member researchers. Principal Investigator Susan Hovorka opened the meeting by welcoming attendees and provided an overview of GCCC studies. Bureau researchers and students followed with research reviews. Changbing Yang presented his findings on geochemical sensitivity to CO2 leakage. Katherine Romanak spoke on "New Application of the Processed-Based Assessment to Groundwater." Student Mary Hingst presented "Methane in the Shallow Subsurface: Geochemical Impacts at Cranfield," and Brad Wolaver presented a talk titled "Green Field and Brownfield Monitoring are not the Same." Mehdi Zeidouni spoke on "Adapting Leaky Well Models to Fault Leakage Models," and student Sean Porse presented "Comparison of Sensitivity of Pressure-Based Methods with Geochemical Methods for Leakage Detection." Hovorka gave an update of the GCCC capacity database, Seyyed Hosseini spoke on "EASY-Tool: Overview of New Award," and student Kerstan Wallace presented "Limitations of Static Regional Capacity Estimations and Effect of Additional Data/Effort on Capacity Refinement, Application for Offshore." Student Logan West presented "Assessment of ROZ—Analog of Long Term Storage and CO2 Market." Alex Sun presented "Optimal Monitoring Network Design for Detecting Leakage," and Vanessa Nunez spoke on "Progress and Limits on Thermal Monitoring." Finally, economist Gürcan Gülen presented his findings on an "Associated Economic Model."
