What is it about?
How to estimate CO2 injection and storage capacity of saline formations. A universal and generalized approach is introduced, demonstrated and applied for this purpose that applies 3 dimensional numerical simulation scheme to model underground saline formations.

Why is it important?
This approach keeps the accuracy and integrity of 3D numerical modeling while it is only applied for a limited portion of a given reservoir and hence eliminates the need for full field CO2 modeling that may turn out to be very complex, time consuming and expensive.
Perspectives
It provides a unique and interesting approach toward incorporating 3D numerical simulation technique in modeling CO2 injection and storage capacity of saline formations. An approach that remains valid for many of the saline formations as long as they meet minimum requirements and hence can be universally applied. It works based on modeling a small portion of the entire formation and extending the results into the entire saline formation and hence reduces the simulation time and efforts to a great extend.
