Chocolate and CO2 sequestration

Rock properties can be a little tricky to understand.
Especially new student that start to learn about porosity, believe that large porosity will result in a good rock to store things. This is called a reservoir rock. These things include oil and gas but are also very important for CO2 Sequestration. This is a process where CO2 will be pumped back into a reservoir and stored. However, porosity isn’t everything. Have a look at this wonderful video that will clear this up, with the use of chocolate!

I got this video over twitter from Chris Rowan

New research focus time! MT @geowriter: loving how seriously these guys are taking the concept of chocolate rocks http://t.co/WcZ1KFgVwg
