Evaluating top seal integrity is crucial for successful subsurface CO 2 storage. Caprock
shale geomechanical properties are complex and influenced by various parameters and …

Significant uncertainties occur through varying methodologies when interpreting faults using
seismic data. These uncertainties are carried through to the interpretation of how faults may …

Although geological CO 2 sequestration is an essential solution for reducing anthropogenic
carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, the method needs critical evaluation of injection …

Reliable assessment of fault stability is key for safe CO 2 storage in a saline aquifer in fault-
bounded structures. The Alpha structure located in the Vette fault's footwall in the Smeaheia …

Development and maturation of geological carbon dioxide (CO 2) storage projects along the
Norwegian Continental shelf is ongoing, but even more storage locations are needed to …

Frictional strength of fault zones is a key parameter for evaluation of fault stability and
reactivation. We measure friction using the direct shear test (DST) for (i) sand-clay mixes …

This study investigates the limitation of simplified stress path assumptions, particularly
uniaxial strain conditions, in fault stability assessments for CO 2 injection sites. We …

Injection-induced rock mechanical failure risks are critical in CO2 sequestration, and thus
there is a need to evaluate these occurrences to ensure safe and reliable subsurface …

This study summarizes the OASIS (Overburden Analysis and Seal Integrity Study for CO 2
Sequestration in the North Sea) project that focuses on assessing the containment risks …

Faults play an essential role at many potential CO2 storage sites because they can act as
conduits or barriers to fluid flow. To contribute to the evaluation of the Aurora storage site in …
