Role of Well Operations and Multiphase Geomechanics in Controlling Fault Stability During CO₂ Storage and Enhanced Oil Recovery

CO 2 injection in active oil fields is a technology proposed for industrializing carbon storage operations. However, monitoring CO 2 migration, oil recovery, and mechanical deformation within caprock and on faults is a challenging problem in large‐scale storage‐enhanced oil recovery operations due to intersecting faults, multiphase flow effects, and wells with complex production‐injection schedule. We develop and demonstrate a methodology based...
