Abstract
A facility for monitoring a geological storage site for storing a gas, such as CO2 or methane, comprises, in combination, at least one geochemical measurement device (DMG), comprising a plurality of gas sampling probes (SPG) connected to a gas analyzer (AG), an electrical measurement device (DME) comprising a plurality of electrodes (ELEC) and a resistivity meter (RES), and a meteorological station (SM). The geochemical and electrical measurement devices are controlled by a logic controller (AUT). The geochemical and electrical measurement devices and the meteorological station are connected to a data collector (COLL) that is itself connected to means for transmitting said data (MTD).
