Due to the complexity of sedimentary rocks, especially the fine-grained and highly-
heterogeneous nature of some argillaceous caprocks in the subsurface, it is challenging to …

A decrease in reservoir pressure can lead to remobilization of residually trapped CO 2. In
this study, the pore-scale processes related to trapped CO 2 remobilization under pressure …

One of the pathways to attain NET ZERO is CO 2 injection into deep saline aquifers (DSAs),
which alters the saturation and pore pressure of the reservoir rocks, hence the effective …

To better understand asphaltene deposition mechanisms and their influence on rock
permeability and wettability, we have developed an in situ micro-CT imaging capability to …

Gas relative permeability characterization is of key significance to model the behavior of gas
flow in gas hydrate-bearing sediments. The present study proposes a novel model to relate …

Subsurface processes play a crucial role in determining the efficiency and viability of key
applications with significant technical and economic implications, including hydrocarbon …

Carbonate rock is a potential host for carbon dioxide storage. It is likely to react with
carbonated water, following CO 2 dissolution and dissociation in formation fluids. This might …

Wettability is one of the main parameters controlling CO2 injectivity and the movement of
CO2 plume during geological CO2 sequestration. Despite significant research efforts, there …

Investigating the coal microstructure under the influence of effective stress is vital for
evaluating hydrocarbon gas production and CO2 geo-storage potential of deep coal seams …

Unconsolidated sandstone reservoirs have low rock strength and are easily damaged by
sand production. To evaluate the effect of the microscopic pore system on the degree of …
