CO₂ injection plan

Type your plume conditions, well spacing and per-well injection rate, and a target tonnage. Each well runs the full plume migration and residual trapping model from the reservoir run; the page divides your target by what one well traps and adds the pressure buildup per well, including the nearest neighbor.

Wells and target

Starting values are assumptions, not your data: 8,000 ft, 100 ft, 50 md, 0.15 porosity, 3,500 psi, 100,000 t/yr per well for 10 yr, 5,280 ft spacing, 10 Mt target. S_gr,max 0.382 is the Land fit to your five core plugs. Saved to your account when signed in; otherwise in this browser only.

  • Reservoir temperature 190 °F from depth and your gradient; CO₂ density 631.8 kg/m³ (Span-Wagner 1996).
  • Trapped share is residual trapping only (Land 1968, S_gr,max 0.382); solubility and mineral trapping are extra.
  • Pressure is Theis (1935) in brine: 10 yr injection, brine 0.5 cp, compressibility 0.00001 per psi — assumptions, not your data.
  • Plume diameter (2604 ft) fits inside the 5280 ft spacing.
