BPH reports that gas is seeping from the sea bed in PEP11 , , not a good statement from DB when you proposing CCS for the same location

Pressure pumping CO2 into the current well / wells it is likely the CO2 would also seep back out from the sea bed

This is why DB is proposing to drill to 3170m over the previous 2150m plan

The NSW Government also found limited CCS potential

Stage 1 explored two potential sites in NSW

The Carbon Storage Taskforce identified the Darling Basin and Sydney Basin as national priorities for exploration in 2009.In Stage 1A, four stratigraphic wells were drilled in the Sydney Basin. Work was completed in 2012 and the wells showed limited CO2 storage potential, hence looking further west to the Darling Basin.
