“…The in situ pore pressure is higher than 5 MPa and therefore CO 2 pressure will be higher than 5 MPa. In this range of pressure, interfacial tension for CO 2 /brine can be assumed constant (close to 28 mN/m, Chalbaud et al, 2010). Assuming an interfacial tension of 73 mN/m for the nitrogen/brine system, the estimated P e value for CO 2 is thus 3.5 MPa.…”

Re´sume´-Caracte´risation pe´trophysique inte´gre´e pour le stockage de CO 2 : application au site de Ketzin -La simulation et le suivi d'un stockage de CO 2 requiert des donne´es pe´trophysiques spe´cifiques. Nous pre´sentons un ensemble d'expe´riences applicables a`tout stockage et a`toute couverture, fournissant des donne´es pour des simulations nume´riques re´alistes du potentiel de stockage et de l'injection. Ces expe´riences sont inte´gre´es avec les donne´es diagraphiques pour l'estimation de la porosite´, la saturation irre´ductible, la pression capillaire et la perme´abiliteŕ elative de l'eau en drainage, la saturation en gaz re´siduelle, les relations re´sistivite´-saturation et les proprie´te´s de transport de la couverture (perme´abilite´et diffusivite´). Le cas conside´re´est l'aquife`re salin du Trias dans le contexte du projet CO 2 SINK, le premier site expe´rimental de stockage en Allemagne situe´pre`s de Ketzin.Nous avons utilise´des me´thodes de mesure ne´cessitant des dure´es raisonnables tout en restant repre´sentatives des processus in situ. Pour le transport diphasique, nous avons utilise´la centrifugation. Pour la re´sistivite´, nous avons utilise´une me´thode rapide « Fast Resistivity Index Measurement » (FRIM) en drainage et imbibition, en condition ambiante et en condition de stockage. Pour la caracte´risation de la couverture, nous avons utilise´une technique rapide RMN (Re´sonance Magne´tique Nucle´aire) utilisant le deute´rium comme traceur pour la mesure de diffusion et une me´thode stationnaire innovante pour la mesure de perme´abilite´. La pression d'entre´e a e´galement e´te´e´value´e. Les diagraphies RMN et de re´sistivite´ont e´galement e´te´utilise´es pour estimer de manie`re continue la saturation irre´ductible et juger de la repre´sentativite´des e´chantillons analyse´s au laboratoire.Pour le site de Ketzin, la zone de stockage est un gre`s argileux d'origine fluviatile localement tre`s cimente´d'une porosite´d'environ 30 % et d'une perme´abilite´variant de 100 a`300 mD. Deux zones se distinguent par des saturations irre´ductibles variant de 15 a`35 %. La courbe de perme´abilite´relative a`l'eau pre´sente une forte pente et sugge`re qu'une saturation infe´rieure a5 0 % n'est pas atteignable en pratique. L'exposant de saturation de l'indice de re´sistivite´est de 1,7, plus faible que la valeur standard de 2. La couverture a une perme´abilite´de 27 nD, une porosite´de 15 % et une diffusivite´de 0,8 9 10 À9 m 2 /s. Abstract -Advanced and Integrated Petrophysical Characterization for CO 2 Storage: Application to the Ketzin Site -Reservoir simulations and monitoring of CO 2 storage require specific petrophysical data. We show a workflow that can be applied to saline aquifers and caprocks in order to provide the minimum data set for realistic estimations of storage potential and perform pertinent simulations of CO 2 injection. The presented series of experiments are fully integrated with quantitative log data analysis to estimate porosity, irreducible saturation, drainage capillar...

“…Hence, this paper also deals with γ water,CO2 and γ water,flue gas at CO 2 storage conditions. Experimental data for the interfacial tension of pure water and brine against CO 2 at reservoir conditions have been reported by several authors (Chalbaud et al 2007, Chalbaud et al 2010, Chalbaud et al 2009, Chalbaud et al 2006, Chiquet et al 2009, Chun and Wilkinson 1995, Georgiadis et al 2010, Hebach et al 2002, Kvamme et al 2007, Nielsen et al 2012, Shariat et al 2011, Shariat et al 2012, Sutjiadi-Sia et al 2008, Yan et al 2001.

“…Chalbaud et al (2007) conducted an extensive set of measurements of interfacial tensions for brine-CO 2 systems at different pressure, temperature and salinity conditions representative of CO 2 storage operations. Their results clearly show the necessity of having reliable wettability data to obtain accurate predictions of CO 2 sequestration studies (Chalbaud et al 2010). They also studied wettability alteration by using 2D glass micro models to track fluid distribution as function of thermodynamic properties and wettability conditions.…”

SUMMARYCarbon capture and storage (CCS) has the potential for reducing CO2 emissions to the atmosphere. This option includes storage strategies such as CO2 injection into deep saline aquifers, depleted oil and gas reservoirs, and unmineable coal seams. This process is largely controlled by the interactions between CO2, the reservoir fluid and reservoir rock. In particular, the wettability of the rock matrix has a strong effect on the distribution of the injected CO2 into geological formations.In this study, the wetting behavior of Bentheimer sandstone slabs and CO2 and/or flue gas is investigated by means of contact-angle measurements. In addition, the interfacial tension between CO2 and/or flue gas and connate water was determined. The experiments were conducted in a pendant-drop cell, adapted to allow captive-bubble contact-angle measurements and performed at a constant temperature of 318 K and pressures varying between 0.2 and 15 MPa, typical in-situ conditions.The experimental contact angle measurements show that the Bentheimer sandstone/water system is (and remains) water-wet even at high pressures with CO2 and/or flue gas injection. The determined data of the contact angle of the water-sandstone system demonstrate a strong dependence on the bubble size and surface roughness with CO2 and flue gas injection.

“…Furthermore, drying and dehydration are two other important phenomena occurring near the injection well which were not considered in this project. They are studied within the "Near Well" ANR project (2008)(2009)(2010). The influence of impurities in CO 2 on geochemical and dissolution/precipitation mechanisms also has to be better understood.…”

Résumé -Injectivité du CO 2 dans les stockages géologiques : programme et principaux résultats du projet ANR GéoCarbone-Injectivité -L'objectif du projet GéoCarbone-Injectivité était de définir une méthodologie pour étudier les phénomènes complexes intervenant aux abords des puits lors de l'injection de CO 2 . La méthodologie proposée s'appuie sur des expérimentations interprétées numériquement à l'échelle de la carotte afin de comprendre (modélisation physique et lois de comportement) et de quantifier (paramétrisation des outils de simulation) les différents mécanismes susceptibles de modifier l'injectivité : les interactions roche/fluide, les mécanismes de transport aux abords du puits d'injection et les effets géomécaniques. Ces mécanismes et les paramètres associés devront ensuite être intégrés dans une modélisation à l'échelle métrique à décamétrique des abords du puits d'injection. Cette approche a été appliquée pour l'étude d'une injection potentielle de CO 2 dans la formation géologique du Dogger du Bassin Parisien, en relation avec les projets ANR GéoCarbone. Abstract
