'''Research projects:'''
<:vspace>
* [[http://www.co2sink.org/ | ''CO2SINK: European research project dealing with research on geological storage of CO2'']], funded by the EU commission, the (German) Federal Ministry of Economics and Technologies (BMWi), the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and the industry.
<:vspace>
* [[https://www.co2castor.com | ''CASTOR: "CO2 from Capture to Storage"'']], is an European initiative grouping 30 partners (industries, research institutes and universities) coming from 11 different European countries and partially funded by the European Commission under the 6th Framework Program. The overall goal of CASTOR is to develop and validate, in public/private partnerships, all the innovative technologies needed to capture CO2 and store CO2 in a reliable and safe way.

'''Case studies:'''
<:vspace>
* [[http://www.ptrc.ca/weyburn_overview.php | ''Weyburn-Midale CO2 Project'']]. Launched in 2000, this 8-year $80 million international project studies CO2 injection and storage underground in depleted oil fields. The project is operated in conjunction with two billion-dollar commercial CO2 floods in Saskatchewan, Canada, where huge volumes of the gas are captured from an industrial source and injected to revive oil production.
