This study investigated the coupled effects of surfactant-induced interfacial tension (IFT)
reduction and wettability alteration on reducing residual brine saturation and its implications …

In the course of developing innovative approaches for climate change mitigation, CO 2
sequestration in saline aquifers has drawn attention to itself as an appealing and effective …

Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is capable of significantly reducing
anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions. In the Canadian context, CCUS is an …

CO2 sequestration in geological formations is crucial for mitigating the excessive
greenhouse gas accumulation. Saline aquifers have been identified as the most appealing …

Impurity effects are an intricate issue in CO 2 geological storage, involving both pre-
dissolved impurities in the geological medium and co-injected impurities. Numerical …

Carbon dioxide (CO2) geological storage traditionally involves capturing a CO2 stream from
a point source such as a power station or from cement, steel, or natural gas processing …

Net fluid balance in the Alberta Basin has been negative over the last 60 years because
extensive fluid production has consistently exceeded injection during this period. However …

One of the key aspects of underground carbon dioxide disposal is the injection rate. This
defines the amount of CO 2 to be injected into a reservoir, and is limited by reservoir fracture …

Reliable regional-scale permeability data and minimum sustained injectivity rate estimates
are key parameters required to mitigate economic risk in the site selection, design, and …

Understanding the distribution and orientation of natural fractures within Knox Groups is of
significance in seeking potential CO2 storage zones with high practical storage capacity …
