We conducted a comprehensive experimental study on the effect of the CO2 injection rate (flow rate: represented by the macroscopic capillary number, Nc) on CO2 saturation (SCO2) and the CO2 distribution in porous, brine-saturated Berea sandstone. We measured two independent geophysical parameters, P-wave velocity (Vp) and electrical resistivity (ρ*), to monitor the two-phase flow. Vp showed clear dependency on SCO2 in the transition zone between the capillary limit (CL) and the viscous limit (VL), but not near the CL. The VpSCO2 relationship showed that the characteristic size of connected CO2 volumes decreased with increasing Nc, whereas resistivity increased continuously with increasing SCO2. Therefore, resistivity is sensitive to SCO2 under flow conditions between the CL and VL. The ρ*–SCO2 relationship showed that CO2 penetration increased with increasing Nc. These results indicate that we can use Vp and ρ* to monitor CO2 flow in pore spaces because the injected CO2 forms pathways and replaces brine under a wide range of Nc values.

CO 2注入速度对多孔砂岩两相流及物理参数的影响

我们对CO 2注入速率(流速:由宏观毛细管数N c表示)对CO 2饱和度(小号CØ2)和在盐水饱和的Berea多孔砂岩中的CO 2分布。我们测量了两个独立的地球物理参数,即P波速度(V p)和电阻率(ρ *),以监测两相流。V p明显依赖于小号CØ2在毛细管极限(CL)和粘性极限(VL)之间的过渡区域,但不在CL附近。的Vp-小号CØ2关系表明,连接的CO 2体积的特征尺寸随N c的增加而减小,而电阻率则随n c的增加而连续增加小号CØ2。因此,电阻率对小号CØ2在CL和VL之间的流动条件下。该ρ * -小号CØ2的关系表明,随着N c的增加,CO 2的渗透增加。这些结果表明,我们可以使用V pρ *来监视CO 2在孔空间中的流动,因为注入的CO 2会形成路径并在很大的N c值范围内替代盐水。
