Abstract:
In spite of the large number of research works on carbon capture and sequestration (CCS), the migration and behaviour of CO2 in the subsurface (i. e. strata below the earth's surface) still needs further understanding and investigations with the aim of encouraging the governmental policy makers to adopt CCS technology as one of the most viable means to tackle the global warming threats. In this research work, a series of numerical simulations has been carried out using STOMP-CO2 simulation code to determine the flow behaviour and ultimate fate of the injected supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO

Abstract:
This work presents model development and model analyses of CO2 storage in deep saline aquifers. The goal has been two-fold, firstly to develop models and address the system behaviour under geological heterogeneity, second to tackle the issues related to problem scale as modelling of the CO2 storage systems can become prohibitively complex when large systems are considered. The work starts from a Monte Carlo analysis of heterogeneous 2D domains with a focus on the sensitivity of two CO2  storage performance measurements, namely, the injectivity index (Iinj) and storage efficiency coefficient (E

Abstract:
In a context of international reduction of greenhouse gases emissions, CCS (ce{CO2} Capture and Storage) appears as a particularly interesting midterm solution. Indeed, geological storage capacities may raise to several millions of tons of ce{CO2} injected per year, allowing to reduce substantially the atmospheric emissions of this gas. One of the most interesting targets for the development of this solution are the deep saline aquifers. These aquifers are geological formations containing brine whose salinity is often higher than sea water's, making it unsuitable for human consumption. However

Abstract:
Many geoscientists endorse Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) as a potential strategy for mitigating emissions of greenhouse gases. Deep saline aquifers have been reported to have larger CO 2 storage capacity than other formation types because of their availability worldwide and less competitive usage. This work proposes an analytical model for screening potential CO 2 storage sites and investigates injection strategies that can be employed to enhance CO 2 storage. The analytical model provides of estimates CO 2 storage efficiency, formation pressure profiles, and CO 2 –brine interface locatio

Abstract:
CO2 capture and storage (CCS) has been proposed as a climate change mitigation strategy. The basic principle is to prevent CO2 which would normally be emitted from large point sources, such as power stations, from entering the atmosphere. This is achieved by capturing the CO2 at source and storing it in a location where it will be trapped and unable to enter the atmosphere. This work looks specifically at geological storage of CO2 in deep saline formations. Dynamic simulations can be used to investigate the fundamental physical and chemical processes which occur when CO2 is injected into geolo

Abstract:
The injection of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) into saline aquifers could help to reduce anthropogenic CO2 emissions, but due to the potential dangers posed by leakage, extensive monitoring will be required. Ideally this monitoring will be able to determine: CO2 movement, the amount of CO2 stored, the CO2 phase (gaseous, supercritical or dissolved in brine), the trapping mechanism (structural or residual) and the occurrence of pore-pressure changes. The literature review highlighted five uncertainties which could impact on the ability of time-lapse seismic surveys to fulfil the monitoring requirements:

One of the most promising mitigation strategies for greenhouse gas accumulation in the atmosphere is carbon capture and storage (CCS). Deep saline aquifers are seen as the most efficient carbon dioxide (CO2) storage sites, mainly because of their vast size and worldwide distribution. Injecting CO2 into brine filled media will cause a physical and chemical disequilibrium in the formation. This PhD thesis documents the investigation of some of the resulting effects which occur at the beginning of the injection, during the injection period and millions of years after injection.

Although deep saline aquifers are found in all sedimentary basins and provide very large storage capacities, a little is known about them because they are rarely a target for the exploration.

The aim of this study is to create a predictive model to estimate the CO2 storage capacity of the deep saline carbonate aquifers since a little is known about them.

One of the biggest challenges for humanity is global warming and consequently, climate changes.

CCS briefly consists of capturing CO2 from the atmosphere or stationary emission sources and transporting and storing it via mineral carbonation, in oceans or geological media. The latter is
