Overview

Numerical simulations reveal halite precipitation impacts based on injection rate and heterogeneity in saline aquifers.

Key Points

  • High injection rates prevent significant halite precipitation, enhancing injectivity in saline aquifers.
  • At low CO2 injection, halite precipitation is influenced by both injection rate and rock heterogeneity.
  • Numerical simulations utilized various scenarios to assess the effects on halite precipitation and injectivity.
  • Findings support risk assessments related to formation damage in subsurface CO2 storage strategies.
