Initial evaluation of advantageous synergies associated with simultaneous brine production and CO2 geological sequestration

► Brine production reduces injection well pressure enabling higher injectivity potential. ► Brine production significantly reduces the extent of the Area of Review. ► Brine production reduces risk of CO2 and brine leakage through abandoned wells. ► Effective CO2 plume steering needs more than a single ring vertical production wells. ► Synergies between carbon and water management are important.
