Subsurface Monitoring developed tools needed to: (1) track the movement of the injected CO2 plume through the storage reservoir, (2) define the lateral extent and boundaries of the plume, (3) track associated pressure changes and other physical property changes in the reservoir, to identify possible release pathways that will inform future monitoring efforts, and (4) demonstrate long-term stability of the CO2 plume.

Intelligent Monitoring combined real-time data collection, site-specific and project-specific data analysis and interpretation, and injection control. Such systems need to integrate diverse data from atmospheric, near-surface, and subsurface monitoring networks and convert these data into meaningful and actionable information.
