SiteChar research will inform implementation of the European Union Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Directive by presentation of a standard site characterisation workflow based on the investigation of five representative potential carbon dioxide (CO2) storage sites. One of the sites investigated, in Work Package 3 (WP3) of the SiteChar project, lies offshore in the Outer Moray Firth within the UK sector of the North Sea. The ultimate aim of Work Package 3 is to submit a dry-run licence application to the competent authorities in Scotland. This (D3.1) report acts as one of the reference documents used to inform the application.
