Co2 bleed-off process with equipment preservation during temporary co2 injection process

A depressurization system, comprising

• a closed system, including at least a conduit, configured to include a volume of trapped CO2;
• an injection inlet coupled to a first portion of the closed system, wherein the injection inlet is configured to inject a displacement fluid into the closed system;
• a depressurization line coupled to a second portion of the closed system, wherein the first and second portions are offset from one another;
• and
• a cryogenic valve coupled to the depressurization line, wherein the cryogenic valve is configured to control a release of the trapped CO2 out of the closed system through the depressurization line.

A method, comprising:

• determining if a volume of trapped CO2 within a closed system is in a liquid or supercritical state;
• in response to the volume of trapped CO2 being in the liquid or supercritical state, reducing a pressure of the closed system by bleeding off the pressure while keeping the pressure in the closed system above the saturation pressure of CO2;
• injecting a displacement fluid to release CO2 through a depressurization line while maintaining the pressure in the closed system above the saturation pressure of CO2;
• and
• performing one or more pressure bleed offs to ambient conditions releasing the displacement fluid through the depressurization line.
