This benchmark was prepared and organized by the University of Bergen, the University of Stuttgart, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, for promoting understanding of the complex physics of geological carbon storage (GCS) through in-house experiments and numerical simulations. This paper synthesizes the experiences of history matching the benchmark data encountered by the Delft-DARTS and CSIRO participants. History matching is first performed based on a low-dimensional-zonated structured model using a simple Poisson-like solver. The permeability of six facies and two faults is inferred in this stage to match the digitized concentration data. The history matching is then further enhanced to richer spatial and physical models to capture the spatial variation of permeability and buoyancy effects, using an unstructured grid. Efficient adjoint methods are used to evaluate the gradient used in the optimization of data misfits or equivalent Bayesian log-likelihoods. With efficient optimization methods available for both maximum a posteriori model inference and Randomized Maximum Likelihood methods for model uncertainty, we perform history matching using both binary and continuous concentration observations. The results show that the tracer plumes in the enriched model match the experimental plumes more accurately compared with the results from the parsimonious-zonated model. The history matching results based on the concentration observations provide more similar plume shapes compared with the case based on the binary observations. The permeability difference between the model before and after history matching reveals that the tracer plume zone and the high permeable zone are the regions of high sensitivity in terms of data misfit between the model response and observations. Surprisingly, CO<span>(_2)</span> concentration plume forecasts based on these history-matched models were not especially sensitive to the improvements observed in the enhanced model.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":804,"journal":{"name":"Transport in Porous Media","volume":"151 5","pages":"1113 - 1139"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11242-023-02048-7.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139476849","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We demonstrate that the rates of ganglia fragmentation and coalescence intensify at higher Ca values, as viscous forces become dominant over capillary ones, leading to a log-normal size distribution that shifts toward smaller mean values. This effect is directly correlated with the emergence of new flow paths that develop progressively through narrower pores-throats, where the continuous wetting phase sweeps ganglia with sizes smaller than the mean pore-throat diameter. These flow paths further contribute to the Darcy scale velocity of the non-wetting phase, thus leading to a power-law Darcian regime at intermediate Ca values with a scaling exponent that is found to be a function of <i>Q</i>.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":804,"journal":{"name":"Transport in Porous Media","volume":"151 3","pages":"469 - 493"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11242-023-02041-0.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139420748","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The wettability is determined by the affinity of fluids to the rock surface, which varies due to factors such as mineral heterogeneity, roughness, ageing, and pore-space geometry. It is well known that wettability varies spatially in natural rocks, and it is still generally considered a constant parameter in pore-scale simulation studies. The accuracy of pore-scale simulation of multiphase flow in porous media is undermined by such inadequate wettability models. The advent of in situ visualization techniques, e.g. X-ray imaging and microtomography, enables us to characterize the spatial distribution of wetting more accurately. There are several approaches for such characterization. Most include the construction of a meshed surface of the interface surfaces in a segmented X-ray image and are known to have significant errors arising from insufficient resolution and surface-smoothing algorithms. This work presents a novel approach for spatial determination of wetting properties using local lattice-Boltzmann simulations. The scheme is computationally efficient as the segmented X-ray image is divided into subdomains before conducting the lattice-Boltzmann simulations, enabling fast simulations. To test the proposed method, it was applied to two synthetic cases with known wettability and three datasets of imaged fluid distributions. The wettability map was obtained for all samples using local lattice-Boltzmann calculations on trapped ganglia and optimization on surface affinity parameters. The results were quantitatively compared with a previously developed geometrical contact angle determination method. The two synthetic cases were used to validate the results of the developed workflow, as well as to compare the wettability results with the geometrical analysis method. It is shown that the developed workflow accurately characterizes the wetting state in the synthetic porous media with an acceptable uncertainty and is better to capture extreme wetting conditions. For the three datasets of imaged fluid distributions, our results show that the obtained contact angle distributions are consistent with the geometrical method. However, the obtained contact angle distributions tend to have a narrower span and are considered more realistic compared to the geometrical method. Finally, our results show the potential of the proposed scheme to efficiently obtain wettability maps of porous media using X-ray images of multiphase fluid distributions. The developed workflow can help for more accurate characterization of the wettability map in the porous media using limited experimental data, and hence more accurate digital rock analysis of multiphase flow in porous media.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":804,"journal":{"name":"Transport in Porous Media","volume":"151 3","pages":"429 - 448"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11242-023-02044-x.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139027591","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent works have analyzed the idea of employing fines detached by low-salinity water injection to modify water trajectories in a rock formation. In oil and geothermal reservoirs, fines can play, in this context, a beneficial role in water production control. In underground pollution processes, fines can serve as a potential mechanism for isolating soil or water contaminants. In this work, a new application to block the fluid flow in a conducting fault that directly links the injection well with extraction wells by using a slug of low-salinity water is explored. This technique could bear significant relevance, particularly in scenarios where water is injected to displace oil or soil contaminants from the formation into extraction wells. The existence of this type of highly conductive pathways can significantly reduce the efficiency of oil or contaminant sweeping. To analyze the problem, we consider here a low-salinity water slug that is introduced in the injection stream of a standard inverse five-spot well array, in which a high-permeability fault-like streak directly connects the injector with two of the four extraction wells. The mathematical model to describe fines detachment, migration, pore clogging and permeability impairment is revisited and adapted. The nonlinear coupled equation set for single-phase fluid flow, salinity transport and fines dynamics is numerically solved by a finite element method. The efficiency of the low-salinity fines detaching method to block water flow in conductive faults is discussed in terms of slug injection period, slug salinity and flow injection rate. The most sensitive parameters are injection period and injection rate. It was found that fines are equally effective at obstructing broad or narrow faults.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":804,"journal":{"name":"Transport in Porous Media","volume":"151 3","pages":"403 - 427"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138742177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The complexity of measuring gas–gas diffusion in porous media at increased pressure and temperature resulted in significant gaps in data availability for modelling this process. Therefore, correlations for ambient conditions and simplified diffusivity models have been used for modelling purposes. In this study, correlations in dependency of petrophysical and thermodynamic properties were developed based on more than 30 measurements of the molecular diffusion of the binary system hydrogen–methane in gas storage rock samples at typical subsurface conditions. It allows reproducing the laboratory observations by evaluating the bulk diffusion coefficient and the tortuosity factor with relative errors of less than 50 % with minor exceptions, leading to a strong improvement compared to existing correlations. The developed correlation was implemented in the open-source simulator DuMu<sup>x</sup> and the implementation was validated by reproducing the measurement results. The validated implementation in DuMu<sup>x</sup> allows to model scenarios such as Underground Hydrogen Storage (UHS) on a field-scale and, as a result, can be used to estimate the temporary loss of hydrogen into the cushion gas and the purity of withdrawn gas due to the gas–gas mixing process.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":804,"journal":{"name":"Transport in Porous Media","volume":"151 1","pages":"213 - 232"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11242-023-02039-8.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138534617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
