CO₂ field grid

CO₂ concentration and pressure at every cell across the whole site, from every well at once. Drag the year slider to step migration forward. Runs from your saved storage site plan — none saved yet, so this shows the plan page's starting values; enter your site there and this page follows.

Point at a cell to read it.

Dark = mobile CO₂ (70% of pore space); light = trapped CO₂ left behind (32.8%, Land 1968).

48×48 cells, each 514 ft across. Pressure in every cell adds up the Theis (1935) rise from every well, not just one neighbour. CO₂ in each cell comes from each well's plume in the same trapping and migration model (Hesse et al. 2008; MacMinn et al. 2011). Simplifications: even rock, plumes move straight up-dip and don't merge or push on each other — where they overlap the cell shows the higher saturation; brine 0.5 cp and compressibility 1e-5 per psi are assumptions.
