Laboratory Experiments on CO2–Water–Dolomite Interactions for a Pilot CO2 Storage Scheme in a Carbonate Reservoir in the Czech Republic

Year: 2025

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: This work investigates the geochemical response of carbonate reservoir rocks to CO2-enriched fluids, focusing on mineralogical changes and potential geological storage consequences. Laboratory experiments involved Žarošice field (Czech Republic) dolomite rock and in situ representative pore water. The findings show that CO2 injection causes carbonate and feldspar dissolution, causing a detectable porosity increase (~0.25 percentage points). These findings lay the groundwork for assessing the potential of using dolomitized carbonate rocks for pilot CO2 sequestration projects in Central Europe.
