Article Reference Strategy for ranking potential CO2 storage reservoirs: A case study for Belgium
CO2 capture and storage (CCS) is likely to become a necessary option in mitigating global climate change. However, lack of detailed knowledge on potential deep geological reservoirs can hamper the development of CCS. In this paper a new methodology is presented to assess and create exploration priority lists for poorly known reservoirs. Geological expert judgements are used as a basis in a two-stage geotechno-economic approach, where first an estimate of the practical reservoir capacity is calculated, and secondly source–sink matching is used for calculating an estimate of the matched capacity and the reservoir development probability. This approach is applied to Belgium, demonstrating how a priority ranking for reservoirs can be obtained based on limited available data and large uncertainties. The results show the Neeroeteren Formation as the most prospective reservoir, followed by the Buntsandstein Formation and the Dinantian reservoirs. The findings indicate that CO2 export to reservoirs in neighbouring countries seems inevitable; still, there is a 70% chance storage will happen in Belgian reservoirs, with an average matched capacity estimate of 110 Mt CO2 . These quantitative results confirm the qualitative resource pyramid classification of potential reservoirs. For Belgium, a high economic risk is attached to reservoir exploration and development. Exploration remains however a necessity if CCS is to be deployed. Furthermore, it is shown that the presented methodology is indeed capable of producing realistic results, and that using expert judgements for reservoir assessments is valid and beneficial.

Article Reference Stratigraphie et faune d’un puits d’extraction néolithique à Petit-Spiennes
L'étude de la stratigraphie combinée à celle de la faune d'un puits d'extraction de silex, fouillé entre 1997 et 1999 à Petit-Spiennes, tente de retracer l'histoire détaillée du comblement d'un puits afin d'y rechercher des indices relatifs au travail minier. Elle montre que le comblement ne doit pas être conçu comme un événement synchrone mais doit se mesurer, au minimum, en terme de mois dans un environnement qui, lui, reste stable. La faune - et parmi celle-ci, surtout, les petits vertébrés intrusifs recueillis sur toute la hauteur du puits d'accès ainsi que les gastéropodes, - indiquent un milieu semi-forestier marqué par la présence de la Trouille. La découverte d'éléments fcetaux d'animaux domestiques suggère la pratique de lélevage dans un périmètre relativement proche de la mine e! par là même, celle d'un habitat aux alentours de 4500 8.P., époque du comblement de la structure. La stratigraphie offre, enfin, une illustration de phénomènes de tassement, décrits précédemment dans la littérature, ainsi que dévénements post-dépositionnels particuliers qui posent le problème du déplacement de certains restes dans un espace en théorie colmaté.
