Experimental Study of Geochemical Interaction of Carbon Dioxide With Formation Water and Rock of Water-Saturated and OilSaturated Horizons
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The paper presents results of the experimental study of geochemical processes in the “formation water – CO – rock” system at reservoir conditions for waterand oil-saturated intervals of several typical terrigenous and carbonate formations of Urals-Volga region. Compositions of formation water and dissolved gas are analyzed at each stage of the experiments, as well as mineral composition of core samples before and after the interaction. Based on the experimental results, a summarizing analysis is presented of possible physical and chemical processes occurring in the “formation water – CO2– rock” system during carbon dioxide injection into waterand oil-bearing formations. The results of the experiments allow us to highlight the significant effects of dissolution and resuspension of carbonates and halite during exposure of carbonized formation water with core material of different lithology and saturation character. In a number of experiments, significant changes in the iron and sulfate anions content were recorded, indicating the interaction of the solution with pyrite and gypsum. There were no significant qualitative and quantitative differences in the results of experiments with core material from water-saturated and oilsaturated intervals of the same lithology.
