Four-site case study of water extraction from CO2 storage

Water extraction is one possible means of enhancing storage capacity and managing carbon dioxide (CO2) storagereservoirs. This study investigates the efficacy of water extraction in CO2;storage applications through the use ofdynamic simulations under various conditions on conceptual heterogeneous geological models based on four CO2;storage sites in different basins of the world. The simulations indicate that the CO2;storage capacities can beincreased, and pressure and plume management can likely be accomplished through the use of water extraction.© 2013 The Authors.
