Geologic Evaluation of Kirkuk Underground Storage Project

Al-Sulaiman FA*, Fadaws AH# and Ahmed TA#

Geologic evaluation of the Kirkuk underground was conducted by comparison of the geometric properties of the cavities derived from two surveys running during 1989 and 2015. The vertical cross sections of the cavities show that most cavities have shown that most cavities have irregular shape because of the presence of impurities in the salt bed that cause different leaching velocities in different directions. The relationship of the cavity roof with tilted salt bed was studied, that shows some of the cavities are not safe to store LPG.
