Geomechanical modeling reveals low fracture risks in caprock and storage capacity in depleted carbonate fields.

The proposed CO2 injection scenario shows minimal risks of mechanical failures in caprock, ensuring stability.
Temperature cooling of up to 103 °C is localized within 2200 ft from injectors, reducing fracture gradients significantly.
Assessment using two-way coupled geomechanics-thermal modeling predicts subsidence matches well with GPS data over 16 years.
Recommendations for CO2 injection limit and MMV program enhance safety in geological carbon storage.

Phuat et al. (2025) studied this question.
