utilizing terminology already established in the petroleum industry and by developing unique expressions (IEA-GHG, 2008).
Although much work has been accomplished, inconsistencies in definitions related to CCS exist between groups, and a widely accepted set of definitions for discussing CO2 storage resource and capacity has not yet been established.
Thus to move the CCS industry toward a useful set of definitions and provide a consistent set of terms for use within this document, the authors suggest an improved classification system by building on the work already accomplished by DOE (2008), CSLF (2007), SPE and others (2007), and CO2CRC (IEA-GHG, 2008).
