Pore‐scale trapping of supercritical CO2 and the role of grain wettability and shape (2013, background): “Core-scale experiments and pore-network flowmodels suggest that this capillary trapping in saline aquifers ranges from 10% to 90% of the total injected volume of CO2 [Bachu and Bennion, 2008; Iglauer et al., 2011; Krevor et al., 2012; Pentland et al., 2011; Suekane et al., 2008].”
Universal scaling of spontaneous imbibition for water‐wet systems (2012, background): “…ranging from groundwater contamination by NAPL transport [Brusseau, 1992], CO2 storage by capillary trapping [Bickle, 2009; Juanes et al., 2006; Pentland et al., 2011], steam migration in highenthalpy geothermal systems [Li and Horne, 2009], the mechanical stability and distribution of…”
Simultaneous determination of capillary pressure and relative permeability curves from core‐flooding experiments with various fluid pairs (2013, background): “[4] There are essentially three studies reporting CO 2/ water capillary pressure curves at relevant pressure and temperature conditions, and include measurements with both unconsolidated [Plug and Bruining, 2007] and consolidated sandstones [Pentland et al., 2011; Pini et al., 2012].”
Pore‐by‐pore capillary pressure measurements using X‐ray microtomography at reservoir conditions: Curvature, snap‐off, and remobilization of residual CO2 (2014, methodology): “This relationship between capillary pressure and saturation can be determined experimentally using different coreflood experimental techniques, such as mercury injection capillary pressure [Purcell, 1949], porous plate coreflooding [El-Maghraby and Blunt, 2013; Pentland et al., 2011], and quasi stea”
Capillary trapping for geologic carbon dioxide storage - From pore scale physics to field scale implications (2015, methodology): “The first characterisation of the CO2-brine IR curve in sandstone (Pentland et al., 2011), and later in carbonate rock (El-Maghraby and Blunt, 2012), was made using a modified porous plate (semi-permeable disk) method.”
