مستخلص: Wettability change of rocks under high-pressure CO2is analyzed for CO2storage assessment. Increased water contact angle (measured by the sessile drop method) with CO2pressure on three different rocks is related to CO2adsorption on the rocks using complementary experimental results of CO2adsorption (by gravimetric measurement) and interfacial tension between water and CO2(by the pendant drop method). An analysis of free energy change accompanying CO2adsorption on the rock surface shows that adsorbed CO2could result in moving the CO2/water/rock contact line and change the rocks from water-wet to non-water-wet, increasing the potential for CO2to spread and displace water. The free energy change has not been studied previously, and the results suggest that CO2adsorption on rocks could decrease the capillary force in geological reservoirs and enable injected CO2to enter a greater portion of pore space. This would significantly increase the reservoir utilization efficiency and CO2storage capacity.
