Note: the CO2 storage capacity is calculated by [23], where is the density of CO2 at the reservoir conditions. is the recovery factor and set to be 0.9. is the fraction of injected gas and equal to 0. , , and are the pressure, temperature, and gas compressibility factor, respectively. The subscripts and denote, in this order, the reservoir and surface conditions. The values of the parameters contained in Table 2 are calculated from GasEOS (http://esdtools.lbl.gov/gaseos/ [24]).
