Impact of sub seismic heterogeneity on CO2 injectivity
Abstract The geometry of the depositional facies and the sandbody continuity in turbidite and fluvial reservoirs controls the stratigraphic heterogeneity, and therefore controls permeability structure. This has implications for CO2 injectivity from...
