RCSPs orginally developed the data per individual geologic storage resource, or as continuous surface models, and then converted these data into a 10 km X 10 km vector "grid". The NATCARB Team at the Kansas Geological Survey compiled the regional datasets into a single, seamless layer.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
This dataset provides a single, seamless spatial database of carbon storage potentials for unmineable coal areas across the USA and parts of Canada compiled from regional datasets created by the RCSPs. Storage resource estimates are based on physically accessible CO2 storage pore volume within subsurface geologic formations, and on the assumption that the storage reservoirs are open systems in which in situ fluids will either be displaced from the injection zone or managed accordingly. Economic and regulatory constraints are not considered. These data are intended to be used as an initial assessment of potential geologic storage and are not a substitute for site-specific assessment, testing, and geologic investigation. This spatial data layer provides carbon capture and storage (CCS) project developers a starting point for further inquiry into CCS technologies aimed at reducing CO2 emissions and is intended for use by RCSPs, project developers, and governmental entities for regional- and national-scale assessments of potential CO2 storage resources in the United States and parts of Canada.
Version 1502 (second quarter release of 2015) of the NATCARB Coal spatial database was created by the NATCARB Team at the Kansas Geological Survey (KGS). The following Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnerships (RCSP) contributed data to the national dataset: Big Sky Carbon Sequestration Partnership (BSCSP); Midwest Geological Sequestration Consortium (MGSC); Midwest Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership (MRCSP); Plains CO2 Reduction Partnership (PCOR); Southeast Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership (SECARB); Southwest Regional Partnership on Carbon Sequestration (SWP); West Coast Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership (WESTCARB). Several site characterization project teams also contributed data through the RCSPs to be included in the national dataset: Black Warrior Basin - University of Alabama; Cambro-Ordovician Strata of the Illinois and Michigan Basins - University of Illinois Gulf of Mexico; Miocene - University of Texas; Triassic Newark Basin of New York and New Jersey - Sandia Technologies; Ozark Plateau Study Area - University of Kansas; Rocky Mountain Region - University of Utah; South Georgia Rift Basin - South Carolina Research Institution; Two Elk Energy Park - North American Power Group; Wilmington Graben, Offshore Los Angeles - Terralog Technologies USA; Wyoming - University of Wyoming.

All RCSPs provided carbon storage data in accordance with common standards developed by the RCSPs and the NATCARB project teams. (See Sources for more information on methodologies). Discrepancies and overlaps occur at the boundaries of some adjacent partnerships and DOE-NETL is the final authority on the handling of these issues (see data fields OVERLAP and DUPLICATE in Entity Attributes section of this document for details).
This dataset reflects the best available knowledge regarding the location of potential carbon sequestration potential in the USA and Canada, both onshore and offshore. However, not all areas of the United States and Canada have been assessed (e.g., offshore New England). Not all RCSPs provided data for all attribute fields in the database (indicated by <Null>). Values of "0" represent actual measurements. Not all RCSPs provided low (VOL_LOW), medium (VOL_MED) and high (VOL_HIGH) estimates of carbon storage capacity. In cases where only medium estimates (VOL_MED) were provided, the medium capacities were copied into the VOL_LOW and VOL_HIGH attribute fields. If the RCSP provided low and high estimates of capacity but not medium, the VOL_MED field was calculated as the natural log mean of VOL_LOW and VOL_HIGH.
Questions regarding accuracy of the data (spatial and attribute) should be directed to the individual RCSPs. Except for certain cases of inter-partnership overlap, NATCARB did not make any changes to the data except for corrections to values in text fields (spelling, capitalization, etc.) when errors were noticed.
The NATCARB Group at the Kansas Geological Survey assembled GIS datasets from the regional partnerships (and other sources where necessary) into a single layer using ESRI's ArcInfo (v10.2.2) software in the Summer and Fall of 2014. All partnerships provided data in 10 km by 10 km vector "cells" and simple polygon outlines of resource boundaries. Not all partnerships provided low, medium and high capacity estimates. Where only medium capacities were provided, KGS made the low and high capacity fields (VOL_LOW and VOL_HIGH, respectively) equal to the medium capacity (VOL_MED). Where only low and high estimates were provided, medium values were calculated as the natural log mean of the low and high volumes. Other alterations to the data include identifying overlapping and duplicate data submitted by adjacent partnerships and making corrections to values in text fields (spelling, capitalization, etc.) when errors were noticed.
