Impacts of thermally induced stresses on fracture stability during geological storage of CO2
Geomechanical stability issues may arise due to induced thermal stresses because CO2 will generally reach the storage formation at a temperature lower than that of the reservoir. Cold injection will form a cold region around the injection well, which will induce thermal stress reduction. We simulate cold CO2 injection in deep saline formations in a normal faulting stress regime and investigate ...
متن کاملImpact of relative permeability hysteresis on geological CO2 storage
[1] Relative permeabilities are the key descriptors in classical formulations of multiphase flow in porous media. Experimental evidence and an analysis of pore-scale physics demonstrate conclusively that relative permeabilities are not single functions of fluid saturations and that they display strong hysteresis effects. In this paper, we evaluate the relevance of relative permeability hysteres...
متن کاملCharacterization for Storage of CO2 in Deep Geological Formations
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is the lead Federal agency for the development and deployment of carbon sequestration technologies. As part of its mission to facilitate technology transfer and develop guidelines from lessons learned, DOE is developing a series of best practice manuals (BPMs) for carbon capture and storage (CCS). The ―Site Screening, Site Selection, and Initial Characterizat...
متن کاملAnalytical Modeling of CO2 Migration in Saline Aquifers for Geological CO2 Storage
Injection of carbon dioxide into geological formations for long-term storage is widely regarded as a promising tool for reducing global atmospheric CO2 emissions. Given the environmental and health risks associated with leakage of CO2 from such a storage site, it is critical to ensure that injected CO2 remain trapped underground for the foreseeable future. Careful site selection and effective i...
متن کاملWater‐CO2‐mineral systems: Interfacial tension, contact angle, and diffusion—Implications to CO2 geological storage
[1] The interfacial interaction between mineral surfaces and immiscible fluids determines the efficiency of enhanced oil or gas recovery operations as well as our ability to inject and store CO2 in geological formations. Previous studies have shown that the interfacial tension and contact angle in CO2‐water‐mineral systems change noticeably with fluid pressure. We compile previous results and e...
