 Abstract

CO2 sequestration in underground formations is currently utilized as a means to mitigate CO2 from indefinitely emitted to the atmosphere. The main concern in such a system is the possible occurrence of leakage to upper layers or to the earth surface. Computational modeling of leakage of a multiphase system in a heterogeneous multilayer system is rather challenging. It requires a discretization scheme capable of simulating the possible accumulation or suction at the boundary between layers of different hydraulic properties. Standard finite element discretization scheme is not able to model such a phenomenon. In this project, this phenomenon is modeled using a mixed discretization scheme.
