The controls on mechanical failure within mudrock seals is a key factor in de-risking CO2 storage targets. The Early Jurassic Redcar Mudstone Formation of the Cleveland Basin in Yorkshire, NE England, is a direct analogue for offshore carbon storage projects in the North Sea. We present an investigation into the impact of mudrock composition, sedimentary facies and faulting on fracture development within the Redcar Mudstone Formation.
