Abstract

The aim of this study is to estimate the stress induced by salt crystallization in a reservoir rock during an injection of supercritical CO ₂ operation. A «pore-scale» model is used to calculate the nucleation and growth of salt crystals within brine solution submitted to a drying out process. The induced crystallization pressure is then estimated through a generalized Correns law. This information is finally imported into a poromechanical model that allows calculating the local strain induced by the crystallization process. The stress state within a representative elementary volume of the host rock is then estimated through the equivalent tensile stress to which the solid matrix of the rock is subjected.
