This archived webinar introduces you to simulating multiphase subsurface flow and CO2 sequestration in deep geological formations using COMSOL Multiphysics. CO2 sequestration is a carbon storage process that is currently under development for the oil and gas industry. Guest speakers from AMPHOS 21 talk about how the CO2 injection facilities involved in this procedure can be designed and optimized by way of simulation. They also discuss coupled nonlinear processes in large-scale models and show you a model coupling miscible multiphase flow equations in a simulation of CO2 injection under a syncline structure. Watch the archived webinar to learn how you can simulate CO2 sequestration in deep geological formations with COMSOL Multiphysics.
