(author)Successful deployment of geological carbon storage (GCS) requires an extensive use of reservoir simulators for screening, ranking and optimization of storage sites. However, the time scales of GCS are such that no sufficient long-term data is available yet to validate the simulators against. As a consequence, there is currently no solid basis...journal article 2023

Wang, Y. (author), Vuik, Cornelis (author), Hajibeygi, H. (author)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...journal article 2022

Wang, Y. (author), Vuik, Cornelis (author), Hajibeygi, H. (author)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...journal article 2022

For example, if users input keywords in a specific language, then they may miss results labeled in other languages. Moreover, users may have an image of the object they want to obtain more...conference paper 2022
