Effects of Heterogeneous Seal Layer Property on The Long-Term Behaviour of CO2 Injected into Deep Multilayer Systems

Heterogeneity in mudstone/shale layers has significant effects on seal layer integrity. The presence of intralayer sandstone channels in a seal layer may allow the buoyant CO2 to escape from the reservoir, even if the globally averaged permeability of the seal layer seems low enough. On the other ha...
