The planned pilot CO2 storage Zar-3 is an oil field with a gas cap in the final production stage in the SE Czech Republic. It is composed of a dolomite Jurassic reservoir sealed by three different formations that differ significantly in lithology. Previous studies left open questions on the nature of pore space and connectivity and the quality of t...
Both oil and gas fields and underground gas storages require periodical check of the trap integrity and occurrence of gas leaks through the caprock. For this purpose soil gas geochemistry was used as a monitoring tool in two contrasting settings. The Zukov gas field, located in NE Czechia, was explored in the 1950s. In 2001 it started to work as un...
CO2-SPICER (CO2 Storage Pilot In a CarbonatE Reservoir) aims at preparation of a CO2 storage pilot in the Zar-3 oil & gas field, SE Czechia. The Zar-3 field was discovered in 2001 and is now in the final production phase. The reservoir structure is an erosional relic of fractured Jurassic dolomites on the SE margin of the Bohemian Massif. The prima...
In the 1950s-1960s, 71 coal and gas exploration wells were drilled in the area of interest in the Western Carpathian Flysch Belt (WCFB) in the NE Czech Republic. Some wells were abandoned while others were used for gas production and storage in the Třanovice underground gas storage (UGS). A monitoring campaign was carried out in place of an earlier...
Data Infrastructure (EGDI) and related information services for the sustainable and safe use of our subsurface and its resources. The project is structured in 9 Working Packages (WP). Its 'WP3 Geothermal energy & underground storage inventory' will deliver the named online GIS 'Pan-European Atlas for Sustainable Geo-Energy Capacities (SGEC)', a fut...
Teschenite association rocks (TAR) represent a specific type of mostly alkaline igneous rocks which form an almost 100 km long belt of discontinuous rock bodies within the Outer Western Carpathians (OWC) in the territory of Czechia and Poland. At present, a detailed mineralogical, geochemical, and stratigraphic analysis or dating of the volcanic fo...
This paper represents the first data on the thermal and burial history model of Mesozoic and Cenozoic sedimentary rocks in the Maruszyna IG-1 deep well from the transpressional shear zone of the Western Carpathians. Representatives, organic-rich mudstone and claystone samples were selected to determine their thermal maturity using mean random vitri...
This paper represents the first data on the thermal and burial history of Mesozoic and Cenozoic sedimentary rocks in the Maruszyna IG-1 deep borehole from the transpressional shear zone of the Western Carpathians. Representative, organic-rich mudstone and claystone samples were selected to determine thermal maturity using mean random vitrinite refl...
Preparation and execution of a CO2 storage pilot project is one of the first logical steps in the effort to kick-start CCS in the region of Central & Eastern Europe, utilizing onshore geological structures for permanent CO2 storage. The main aims of this activity are to test the suitability of local geological structures and demonstrate the feasibi...
Conversion of a nearly depleted oil and gas field Zar-3 in SE Czech Republic to a pilot CO2 storage site is under preparation in a joint project of the Czech Geological Survey, MND company, VSB Technical University in Ostrava and NORCE research institute in Norway. First, an updated geological static 3D model is being built using Petrel (Slb). The...
We determine the organic matter content, its thermal maturity, genetic type, and source rock potential of the Miocene sedimentary rocks in the Czech Carpathian Foredeep. In the Czech Republic the Carpathian Foredeep represents a peripheral foreland basin formed due to the tectonic emplacement and loading of the Alpine-Carpathian Thrust Wedge onto t...
The Oligocene Menilite Formation represents the most important hydrocarbon source rock in the Flysch Carpathians. The formation is laterally uniform across long distances but shows strong vertical heterogeneity reflecting changes in depositional environments, which control the source rock potential. In the Czech Republic, the Menilite Formation is...
The Oligocene Menilite Formation represents the most important source rock in the Outer Flysch Carpathians. However, only a few studies describe its source rock potential on the territory of the Czech Republic. This overview study deals with 163 samples from the Oligocene Menilite Formation from the Silesian, Subsilesian and Ždánice units in the Cz...
The Eocene-Oligocene boundary in the Paratethys area represents a period associated with a major extinction event followed by anoxic events. A good understanding of the factors controlling the formation of organic-rich layers is a key for prediction of source rock distributions. An excellent opportunity to study these factors is provided by the Lou...
Rocks deposited in the Oligocene Paratethys are recognized as one of the most important source rocks in the Flysch Carpathians. The Šitbořice Member (uppermost NP23 to lowermost NP25 zone) represents the upper part of the Menilite Formation in the Outer Flysch Carpathians of the Czech Republic. This paper presents results of bulk geochemical analys...
This study evaluates the geothermal history of Palaeozoic sedimentary rocks from the easternmost part of the Variscan external zone in the NE Czech Republic. The objective was to investigate the geothermal history of pre-Variscan Palaeozoic carbonates in the study area, and to assess its relationship with that of the overlying Variscan flysch. In t...
The one dimensional model (1D) of thermal history and subsidence of the Sluovice-1 borehole was created in order to determine the thickness of missing units and determine temperature range reached during the Carpathian nappes thrusting. The reliability of the model was verified using vitrinite reflectance R r [%] and the stabilized temperature T [...
The boreholes Gottwaldov 1 and 2(G1 and G2) are comparable boreholes drilled in exploration area of the Vizovické vrchy Hills (Fig. 1). A 1D model of subsidence and the thermal history of G1 and G2boreholes was created in order to determine the boundary conditions, heat flow, and paleowater depth (Figs 2and 3). The measured vitrinite reflectance (%...
