Subject: Comments to the Draft Specifications for Application of UNFC-2009 to Injection Projects for the Purpose of Geological Storage: from Anthony BUDD, Geoscience Australia
10 September 2015

I have read through the draft specifications for application to injection projects. I have only a couple of comments to make.

In Part III/A Geological storage, the commentary infers that all storage projects will be conducted in depleted petroleum reservoirs. This may be so for most, but perhaps not all projects.

In Part III/F Project Life Time identifies that injection projects (CO2 specifically) need to include activities after the active injection. Perhaps allowance for this needs to be included in Supporting Explanations for the economic (E1, E2) definitions (e.g. Table 1).
