Effects of Different Penetration Patterns on a Fault during Underground Fluid Injection

Figure 8

Vertical displacement distribution along the interface between lower caprock and targeted reservoir from the injection well to the fault at different locations. (a), (b), and (c) present the vertical displacement distribution in Scenario 1, Scenario 2, and Scenario 3, respectively, on the interface (between point and point in Figure 6). Black dashed lines show the vertical displacement at point after the fluid injection of 20 years.
