Measurements of Non-Wetting Phase Trapping Applied to Carbon Dioxide Storage

Measurements of Non-Wetting Phase Trapping Applied to Carbon Dioxide Storage

We measure the trapped non-wetting phase saturation as a function of the initial saturation in sand packs. The application of the work is for carbon dioxide (CO2) storage in aquifers where capillary trapping is a rapid and effective mechanism to render injected CO2 immobile. We used analogue fluids...
