Detection of leakage in deep geologic storage formations (e.g., carbon sequestration sites) is a challenging problem. This study investigates an easy-to-implement frequency domain leakage detection technology based on harmonic pulse testing (HPT). Unlike conventional constant-rate pressure interference tests, HPT stimulates a reservoir using periodic injection rates. The fundamental principle u...

[1] A new seepage meter design that increases sensitivity to the small hydraulic gradients that drive submarine groundwater discharge was developed as an inexpensive alternative to traditional seepage meters. The new design replaces seepage meter bags with open-ended tubing through which the displacement of injected dye is a highly reproducible measure of discharge. Laboratory measurements, det...

iran has limited water resources that require preservation and reducing water loss from reservoirs, especially in arid and semi arid regions. there are a number of methods available for to control water loss from reservoirs and canals. concrete linings in water reservoirs and ponds are durable, but their efficiency is limited. geomembrane sheets are another method of controlling leakage from wa...

CO2 that is injected into a storage reservoir can leak in dissolved form because of 18 brine displacement from the reservoir, which is caused by large-scale groundwater motion. 19 Simulations of the reactive transport of leaking CO2aq along a conducting fracture in a clay20 rich caprock are conducted to analyze the effect of various physical and geochemical 21 processes. Whilst several modellin...

This paper suggests a new set of analytical solutions for predicting leakage-induced seepage field and ground settlement in saturated clay. A unique feature of the solutions presented is considering the effect of the tunnel lining through the relative permeability between the tunnel and the soil. Through the superposition method, the proposed method can be easily extended to twin parallel tunne...

This study aimed to carry out the data-driven evaluation of pores and microfractures in tight conglomerate reservoirs combining machine learning complex geometric analysis, then investigate internal control factors reservoir damage. Results show that for Upper Wuerhe formation Mahu sag Xinjiang China, average contribution rate fluid storage seepage is 7.1 times pores, dominate seepage. Besides,...

Abstract. Landslides whose slide surface is gentle near the toe and relatively steep in middle rear part are common Three Gorges Reservoir area, China. The mass that overlies of termed “driving section”, which “resisting section”. A driving–resisting model presented to elucidate deformation mechanism reservoir landslides this type, as exemplified by Shuping landslide. More than 13 years field o...
