Abstract

Summary

This abstract presents a complete thermal dynamic simulation workflow for carbon dioxide (CO) storage in depleted gas reservoirs, based on a field-scale case study in the Sajaa and Kahaif Fields, Sharjah, UAE. Situated within the geological framework of the Cretaceous-age carbonate reservoirs, the study details a complete workflow for converting a conventional isothermal model into an advanced thermal dynamic model. The enhanced thermal simulation captures essential physical processes such as temperature-induced phase behaviour changes, dissolution kinetics, and thermal impact on rock mechanical properties of caprock and faults. Accurately modelling these thermal effects is critical for reliably predicting long-term CO storage efficiency, containment security, and operational safety under realistic reservoir conditions.
