Numerical simulation examines CO2 injection impact in saline aquifers, suggesting optimal storage without rock failure.

The aim is to evaluate how CO2 injection affects the stability and storage capacity of deep saline aquifers.
Developed a hydro-mechanical model to analyze CO2 plume migration and pressure effects.
Compared solid deformation impacts with traditional hydraulic models.
Investigated multiple parameters affecting CO2 properties and aquifer behavior.
Solid deformation significantly alters CO2 distribution and pressure buildup.
Maximum pore pressure occurs at the top of the aquifer, indicating rock failure risk.
Permeability is identified as a key factor influencing pore pressure and potential rock failure.

Singh et al. (2026) studied this question.
