The role of the stress regime on microseismicity induced by overpressure and cooling in geologic carbon storage

Fluid injection in deep geological formations usually induces microseismicity. In particular, industrial-scale injection of CO2 may induce a large number of microseismic events. Since CO2 is likely to reach the storage formation at a lower temperature than ...

Impact of uncertain CCS deployment on EU climate negotiations

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau, Alain Haurie

In this paper we propose a stochastic non-cooperative meta-game approach to assess the role of uncertain CCS deployment on climate agreements among 28 European countries. The game model is identified through statistical emulation of a large set of numerica ...

Thermal and capillary effects on the caprock mechanical stability at In Salah, Algeria

Victor Vilarrasa Riano

Thermo-mechanical effects are important in geologic carbon storage because CO2 will generally reach the storage formation colder than the rock, inducing thermal stresses. Capillary functions, i.e., retention and relative permeability curves, control the CO ...

Potential fracture propagation into the caprock induced by cold CO2 injection in normal faulting stress regimes

Lyesse Laloui, Victor Vilarrasa Riano

Thermal effects are an important component in the analysis of geologic carbon storage because the injected CO2 reaches the storage formation at a lower temperature than that of the reservoir rock. The main fear is related to the possibility that the shear ...
