Abstract
Geological storage of CO2 is considered a solution for reducing the excess CO2 released into the atmosphere. Low permeability caprocks physically trap CO2 injected into underlying porous reservoirs. Injection leads to increasing pore pressure and reduced effective stress, increasing the likelihood of exceeding the capillary entry pressure of the caprocks and of caprock fracturing. Assessing on how the different phases of CO2 flow through caprock...
