📑 InterPore Journal Article: Unraveling salt precipitation mechanisms in geological CO2 storage: Insights into dominant driving forces Nematollah Zamani, David Landa-Marbán, Tor Harald Sandve, Sarah Gasda Understanding the underlying mechanism of salt precipitation is essential to maintaining injectivity during geological CO2 storage. Our study shows that the balance among viscous, capillary, and gravity forces determines where salt forms—either near the wellbore or deeper in the reservoir. Using a Ca–Gr framework, we identify flow regimes that help predict and mitigate injectivity impairment in CO2 storage projects.' 🔗 InterPore Journal, Vol. 3, Issue 2, 2026: https://lnkd.in/dkS6zdjW #InterPore #InterPorejournal #CO2storage #saltprecipitation
