• The effect of temperature on CO2 injectivity in sandstone reservoirs 

      Sokama-Neuyam, Yen Adams; Aggrey, Wilberforce N.; Boakye, Patrick; Sarkodie, Kwame; Oduro-Kwarteng, Sampson; Ursin, Jann Rune (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) is a pragmatic technology that could reduce anthropogenic CO2 and halt climate change. CO2 injectivity is affected by several physicochemical interactions around the injection ...
    • Experimental Investigation of the Mechanisms of Salt Precipitation during CO2 Injection in Sandstone 

      Sokama-Neuyam, Yen Adams; Ursin, Jann Rune; Boakye, Patrick (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Deep saline reservoirs have the highest volumetric CO2 storage potential, but drying and salt precipitation during CO2 injection could severely impair CO2 injectivity. The physical mechanisms and impact of salt precipitation, ...
    • Theoretical Modeling of the Impact of Salt Precipitation on CO2 Storage Potential in Fractured Saline Reservoirs 

      Sokama-Neuyam, Yen Adams; Boakye, Patrick; Aggrey, Wilberforce Nkrumah; Obeng, Nicholas O.; Adu-Boahene, Francis; Woo, Seung Han; Ursin, Jann Rune (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Deep saline reservoirs have the capacity to hold large volumes of CO2. However, apart from the high brine salinity, which poses an injectivity challenge, a high percentage of saline reservoirs are also fractured. The ...
