Reduced-Order Model for Leakage Through an Open Wellbore from the Reservoir due to Carbon Dioxide Injection

Technical Report Pan, Lehua ; Oldenburg, Curtis M.

Potential CO₂ leakage through existing open wellbores is one of the most significant hazards that need to be addressed in geologic carbon sequestration (GCS) projects. In the framework of the National Risk Assessment Partnership (NRAP) which requires fast computations for uncertainty analysis, rigorous simulation of the coupled wellbore-reservoir system is not practical. We have developed a 7,200-point look-up table reduced-order model (ROM) for estimating the potential leakage rate up open wellbores in response to CO₂ injection nearby. The ROM is based on coupled simulations using T2Well/ECO2H which was run repeatedly for representative conditions relevant to NRAP to create a look-upmore »« less

Correction to Capillary Pressure–Saturation Relations for Supercritical CO₂ and Brine in Limestone/Dolomite Sands: Implications for Geologic Carbon Sequestration in Carbonate Reservoirs

Journal Article Wang, Shibo ; Tokunaga, Tetsu K. - Environmental Science and Technology

Our previous publication on capillary pressure-saturation (P_c-S_w) relations in carbonate sands contained P_c values that were offset from their true equilibrium values. Original Figures 2, 3, and 4 showed nonequilibrium P_c values that were close to the intended equilibrium P_c. The modified figures using the equilibrium P_c data are shown below. Other elements of the original paper and its conclusions remain unaffected. Further corrections to the Supporting Information are also available. We apologize for the inconvenience caused to readers.

Capillary Pressure–Saturation Relations for Supercritical CO ₂ and Brine in Limestone/Dolomite Sands: Implications for Geologic Carbon Sequestration in Carbonate Reservoirs

Journal Article Wang, Shibo ; Tokunaga, Tetsu K. - Environmental Science and Technology

In geologic carbon sequestration, capillary pressure (P_c)–saturation (S_w) relations are needed to predict reservoir processes. Capillarity and its hysteresis have been extensively studied in oil–water and gas–water systems, but few measurements have been reported for supercritical (sc) CO₂–water. Here, P_c–S_w relations of scCO₂ displacing brine (drainage), and brine rewetting (imbibition) were studied to understand CO₂ transport and trapping behavior under reservoir conditions. Hysteretic drainage and imbibition P_c–S_w curves were measured in limestone sands at 45 °C under elevated pressures (8.5 and 12.0 MPa) for scCO₂–brine, and in limestone and dolomite sands at 23 °C (0.1 MPa) for air–brine using amore »« less

Geochemical and geomechanical alteration of siliciclastic reservoir rock by supercritical CO₂-saturated brine formed during geological carbon sequestration

Journal Article Fuchs, Samantha J. ; Espinoza, D. Nicholas ; Lopano, Christina L. ; ... - International Journal of Greenhouse Gas Control

Geologic carbon sequestration (GCS) is a method for storing CO₂ and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions. During GCS, carbon dioxide dissolves into pore water, resulting in a low-pH brine that can react with reservoir rock minerals. This work evaluates the effects of geochemical reactions on geomechanical integrity of representative siliciclastic reservoir samples obtained from the Mt. Simon formation. Rock samples were aged 4 or 8 weeks in CO₂-saturated brine under reservoir conditions, and in N₂-saturated brine as a control. Post-aging, CT scans revealed more extensive micro-fracture development along horizontal bedding planes at grain edges in CO₂ versus N₂-aged samples. Digital analysismore »« less

Enabling site-specific well leakage risk estimation during geologic carbon sequestration using a modular deep-learning-based wellbore leakage model

Journal Article Baek, Seunghwan ; Bacon, Diana H. ; Huerta, Nicolas J. - International Journal of Greenhouse Gas Control

Geologic carbon sequestration (GCS) is a promising technology for mitigating net carbon emissions and growing climate concern by storing CO₂ in reservoirs. Oil and gas brownfields are an attractive option for CO₂ storage, but these sites have many historical wellbores from petroleum production and can be a potential leakage pathway for CO₂ or formation brine. Therefore, risk management of GCS operations requires an assessment of potential well leakage. Due to the high uncertainty of the system, stochastic approaches are ideal for quantifying the range of risk behaviors, but they must be computationally efficient in the face of complex physics.
