Quantifying Salt Precipitation During CO2 Injection: How Flow Rate, Temperature, and Phase State Control Near-Wellbore Crystallization

Karol M. Dąbrowski, Mohammad Nooraiepour, Mohammad Masoudi

Salt precipitation near injection wells can reduce permeability, induce excess pressure buildup, and reduce injectivity within days to weeks of CO2 injection, yet the pore-scale me…
