New and Highly Accurate Static Young's Modulus Model Using Machine Learning Techniques.

Static Young's modulus ( ) is a critical property required in numerous petroleum calculations. Various models to forecast have been proposed in the literature. However, existing models, by and large, lack precision and are confined to specific data set ranges.

A comprehensive review of remediation strategies for mitigating salt precipitation and enhancing CO injectivity during CO injection into saline aquifers.

Geological CO sequestration is a proven method for mitigating climate change by reducing atmospheric CO levels. However, CO injection often induces salt precipitation, leading to decreased formation permeability, which in turn limits CO injectivity and storage capacity. Conventional approaches, such as freshwater and low-salinity water injection, have been employed to mitigate salt precipitation.

Experimental and theoretical investigation of the mechanisms of drying during CO injection into saline reservoirs.

A viable CO storage resource must have sufficient storage capacity, reliable containment efficiency and adequate well injectivity. Deep saline formations stand out in terms of storage capacity and containment efficiency. However, formation brine dry-out and salt precipitation in the near well region could impair CO injectivity in deep saline reservoirs, thus reducing their potential for CO storage.
