• Micro Computed Tomography (Micro-CT) Analysis with a TriFoil Imaging eXplore CT 120 Small Animal X-Ray CT Scanner with a
Custom generator producing 5 kW peak power. The analyzer had a feature detectability of 4 microns. The energy was between 40–120 kV with a maximum current of 50 mA.
• Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectroscopy (LA-ICP-MS) Analysis with a Perkin Elmer Nexion 350D ICP-MS and a Photo Machines Excite He1Ex
193nm Laser with a 50 x 50 mm spot size. A NIST 612 standard was used before and after the scans on each sample to account for machine drift. Lines were collected at 20mm/s.
• Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy (ESEM) with Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) Analysis with a FEI QUANTA 200 SEM in ESEM Mode. The analysis was conducted on
portions of the sectioned samples that were polished to 1 micron prior to analysis. Excitation energy ranged from 10 to 20 KV.
• X-ray Diffraction (XRD) Analysis with a Rigaku MiniFlex 600 analyzer. The samples were run using a 40Kv
voltage and a 15mA current. The radiation source was an interlock CU tube. Scans were run from 5 to 80 degrees at 1 degree per minute.

DISCUSSION
2511th Monitoring Network Meeting ● June 13th - 15th, 2017
Traverse City, Michigan, USA
Discussion• Control lines and hardware are visible as low acoustic impedance
features between the CO2 reservoir at the log top-of-cement indicating that they are not bonded to the casing and could represent a migration pathway.
• Deterioration of the acoustic impedance and CBL signals in the logs is evident over much of the section that was relogged in 2015.
• Each of the cores collected in each well showed carbonation. Both XRD and LA-ICP-MS indicate carbonation occurring at the cement-casing and
cement-formation interfaces.
LA-ICP-MS shows increases in Ca/Si that are likely calcium carbonate fronts and decreases in Ca/Si near the edges of the sample that indicate calcium depletion.
11th Monitoring Network Meeting ● June 13th - 15th, 2017Traverse City, Michigan, USA26
Discussion• The core collected at 10380 ft consisted of casing, control line, and
cement. The cement portion of the core showed visible reaction fronts moving into the sample from the control line / casing side. XRD conducted on the sample show carbonation in each of the zones analyzed.
The carbonation is highest adjacent to the control line / casing interface, with 84 percent calcite, and smallest near the formation with 12 percent calcite.
• The degradation of the fiberglass casing in the reservoir CO2 zone can be seen in both the logs and the casing samples collected. The logs show the worst damage in the CO2 zone with less damage above the CO2 zone and the least damage below the CO2 zone.

CONCLUSIONS
2811th Monitoring Network Meeting ● June 13th - 15th, 2017
Traverse City, Michigan, USA
CONCLUSIONS• High carbonation along the interfaces and the geometry of the damage
to the fiberglass casing indicate that CO2 is migrating along the casing. buoyant CO2 will migrate up from the reservoir causing more damage above the CO2
zone than below the CO2 zone.
• Time-lapse comparison of cement bond amplitude data and acoustic impedance maps imply a deterioration of cement bond or cement along much of the long-string section.
• Analysis of sidewall cores using XRD and LA-ICP-MS validates the log interpretation by confirming the degradation of cement (carbonation) along the casing-cement interface..
11th Monitoring Network Meeting ● June 13th - 15th, 2017Traverse City, Michigan, USA29
CONCLUSIONS• The ultrasonic image maps also clearly identify the control lines and
monitoring technology attached to the outside of the casing. The sidewall core through the control line at 10380 ft confirms that CO2 is migrating along the control line. Study of other wells with external lines should be conducted to see of the results of
the this study are normal or an exception.
