... production and transport, desalination, and saturated brine injection are estimated consistent with assumptions about the location of injection and production wells, the desalination unit or units, and whether desalinated water can be used by the power plant or for other uses. While this approach may enable...

... formations with heterogeneous properties and demonstrate its application to waterflooding and geological CO 2 sequestration problems. The new method focuses on equalizing and delaying (under constant total injected volume) the breakthrough time of the injected fluid at production wells. For application...

... and trapping (to avoid free CO 2 below the top seal). This system would position a horizontal brine injection well above and parallel to a horizontal CO 2 injection well with horizontal brine production wells drilled parallel to the CO 2 injection well at a specified lateral spacing. Simulations showed...
