We should consider not only the column "conservative estimate Mt" done here since this is only storage potential for geological reservoirs suitable for CO2 storage not including hydrocarbon fields (gas + oil) or saline aquifers which are separately listed and in the dataset are called "daughter units" in ['conservative estimate GAS Mt', 'conservative estimate OIL Mt', 'conservative estimate aquifer Mt'].
An even more conservative assumption would be to include only storage resources with high density potentials which are the named three hydrocarbon fields (gas + oil) or saline aquifers and exclude the "conservative estimate Mt" which contains the largest part of the CO2 storage potential (78%)

Add storage potential for high density storage such as saline aquifers and hydrocarbon fields (gas + oil)
We use the CO2 sequestration potentials from the CO2 stop project of the European Commission
