Abstract:The fast spin, echo Magnetic Resonance Imaging technique is an appropriate imaging tool for the direct and quantitative evaluation of two-phase flow of supercritical. CO2 and water in porous media at sequestration conditions. Fundamental characteristics of the two-phase flow process such as the CO2 frontal, the velocity of CO2 frontal, residual water saturation, onset of fluid flow instabilities (CO2 fingering and channeling) due to fluid viscosity, buoyancy and porous media conformance problems, can be accurately detected using the MRI technique.
