1 Cranfield Phase III Modeling Presented by: Seyyed A. Hosseini Jackson School of Geosciences The University of Texas at Austin 6th Annual Southeast Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership Stakeholders' Briefing March 9-10, 2011 Atlanta, GA

2 Questions to answer by modeling What is maximum down dip extent of plume? How dissolution of CO2 and exsolution of methane occurs and at what rate? How response of the system changes given changes in: Relative permeability Bed continuity of sand or barriers Injection rate Multiple flow path 2

3 Questions to answer by modeling Big picture What are the key facts that constrain the model for short and long term fate of CO2? What uncertainties make a big difference at large volume injection, and what do not? How different is an EOR setting than a nonproducing setting? How is four-way closure different than open dip reservoir? i? 3

4 Model Description fault HiVIT = High Volume Injection Test; DAS = Detailed Area Study; Fault Gas Cap 4

5 Modeling Approach Generate multiple permeability and porosity realizations based on core and log data Upscaling methods Geostatistical parameters to change Mean of permeability Range of continuity Direction of continuity 5

6 Modeling Approach Hard Data (Core data, Log data, Geological l interpretations, t ti ) Generate eatemultiple utpe(equally likely) realizations Generate/modify realizations Run simulations Compare with actual field observations 6

9 DAS Model - Permeability 9

10 DAS Model Compare model results against actual measurements Bottomhole pressure data before and after F1 injection Hydrotest pressure data Breakthrough time of CO2 in observation wells Crosswell saturation distribution 10

11 Hydrotest 11

12 Saturation History Match Different measurements of saturation exist RST VSP Flow modeling will constrain our models based on: Magnitude of saturation Multiple zone evolve over time Arrival time of saturations 12
