37 Future Study Plan Additional data acquisition: Follow-up monitoring (BHP measurement, time-lapse logging, and crosswell seismic tomography) will be continued till Fluid sampling by CHDT at the injection well IW-1. Logging at the injection well IW-1 (RST or NL). Injecting water into the injection well and run logging tool in it to measure the residual CO2 saturation in an aquifer. Interpretation of time-lapse 3D seismic data is underway. History-match simulation incorporating these additional data is expected to improve our understanding of CO 2 distribution.
