Measurements of the capillary trapping of super‐critical carbon dioxide in Berea sandstone (2011, result): “However, several other authors [Chiquet et al., 2007; Espinoza and Santamarina, 2010; Tonnet et al., 2010; Shah et al., 2008] found lower contact angles on quartz, mica and caprock surfaces: although the contact angle is a function of temperature and pressure, at super‐critical conditions CO2…”
Pore-scale contact angle measurements at reservoir conditions using X-ray microtomography (2014, methodology): “The system becomes less strongly water-wet as brine salinity is increased, with angles changing from 20 for pure water to 40 when 200 mg/l NaCl is used [14].”
Capillary trapping for geologic carbon dioxide storage - From pore scale physics to field scale implications (2015, background): “…(weakening waterwetting) with pressure by Broseta et al. (2012), Chiquet et al. (2007), Iglauer et al. (2014b), Jung and Wan (2012), Saraji et al. (2013), Wesch et al. (1997) but not by Espinoza and Santamarina (2010), Farokhpoor et al. (2013), Wang et al. (2013), Al-Menhali and Krevor (2013).”
Pore‐by‐pore capillary pressure measurements using X‐ray microtomography at reservoir conditions: Curvature, snap‐off, and remobilization of residual CO2 (2014, background): “…multiphase flow in the supercritical (sc) CO2-brine-rock system must be conducted at these conditions as petrophysical properties (such as surface tension and contact angle) are strongly pressure and temperature dependent [Espinoza and Santamarina, 2010; Li et al., 2012; Spiteri et al., 2008].”
Wettability of nanofluid-modified oil-wet calcite at reservoir conditions (2018, methodology): “Previously, fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) was used to represent oil-wet pores in many studies [7,22,39,40].”
Pore‐scale trapping of supercritical CO2 and the role of grain wettability and shape (2013, background): “4MPa and 60°C, in the presence of s-CO2, 1 wt % NaBr brine makes a contact angle of 65° with the glass surface, a contact angle of 128° with the PEEK surface, and a contact angle of 138° with the Teflon surface, which is consistent with previous study [Espinoza and Santamarina, 2010].”
