Impact of deformation bands on fault-related fluid flow in field-scale simulations

Runar L. Berge, Sarah E. Gasda, Eirik Keilegavlen +1

Subsurface storage of CO2 is predicted to rise exponentially in response to the increasing levels of CO2 in the atmosphere. Large-scale CO2 injections into the subsurface require u…

Hydro-mechanical simulation and analysis of induced seismicity for a hydraulic stimulation test at the Reykjanes geothermal field, Iceland

Eirik Keilegavlen, Laure Duboeuf, Anna Maria Dichiarante +8

The hydraulic stimulation of the well RN-34 at the Reykjanes geothermal field in Iceland caused increased seismic activity near the well. Here, we use this as a case study for inve…

Fault slip in hydraulic stimulation of geothermal reservoirs: governing mechanisms and process-structure interaction

Inga Berre, Ivar Stefansson, Eirik Keilegavlen

Hydraulic stimulation of geothermal reservoirs in low-permeability basement and crystalline igneous rock can enhance permeability by reactivation and shear dilation of existing fra…

Flow in fractured porous media: A review of conceptual models and discretization approaches

Inga Berre, Florian Doster, Eirik Keilegavlen

The last decade has seen a strong increase of research into flows in fractured porous media, mainly related to subsurface processes, but also in materials science and biological ap…

Reactivation of Fractures in Subsurface Reservoirs - a Numerical Approach using a Static-Dynamic Friction Model

Runar L. Berge, Inga Berre, Eirik Keilegavlen

Fluid-induced slip of fractures is characterized by strong multiphysics couplings. Three physical processes are considered: Flow, rock deformation and fracture deformation. The fra…
