Emission factor summary
The activity generating the emissions is market for deep well closure. The Reference Product is deep well closure. This is delivering the service of closure of a disused deep onshore wells. The infrastructure represent a borehole of 6,000 m depth for geothermal power generation in an unspecific rock formation. A usage duration of 20 years is estimated, after which the well is filled with cement and gravel and sealed with a concrete slab. The process includes the materials needed for the closure but excludes the recuperation of the land use. The Reference Product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is market activity. Please refer to the ecoinvent documentation for full details: https://ecoquery.ecoinvent.org/3.12/cutoff/dataset/4430/documentation
