Efficient simulation of CO₂ migration dynamics in deep saline aquifers using a multi-task deep learning technique with consistency

CO₂ sequestration and storage in deep saline aquifers is a promising technology for mitigating the excessive concentration of the greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. However, accurately predicting the migration of CO₂ plumes requires complex multi-physics-based numerical simulation approaches, which are prohibitively...

Analysis of hydrodynamic trapping interactions during full-cycle injectionand migration of CO2 in deep saline aquifers

CO2 injection into deep saline aquifers has shown to be a feasible option, as for their large storage capacity under safe operational conditions. Previous studies have revealed that CO2 can be trapped in the subsurface by several mechanisms. Despite the major advances in studying these trapping mechanisms, their dynamic interactions in different...

CO_2 Storage in deep saline aquifers: impacts of fractures on hydrodynamic trapping

Natural or induced fractures are typically present in subsurface geological formations. Therefore, they need to be carefully studied for reliable estimation of the long-term carbon dioxide storage. Instinctively, flow-conductive fractures may undermine storage security as they increase the risk of CO2 leakage if they intersect the CO2 plume. In...
