TLDR
Koide et al. as discussed by the authors showed that deep aquifers, which are not used due to high salinity, can host larger amount of carbon dioxide under their high formation pressure than natural gas and oil reservoirs.

Sequestration of CO2 in geological media: criteria and approach for site selection in response to climate change

TL;DR: In this article, a systematic approach is proposed for the assessment and selection of method and sites for CO2 sequestration in geological media, and the range of sedimentary basins suitable for CO 2 sequestration is significantly reduced if these criteria and climatic conditions, accessibility, infrastructure and cost of CO2 capture and injection are taken into account.

The role of hydrogeological and geochemical trapping in sedimentary basins for secure geological storage of carbon dioxide

TL;DR: In this article, a risk analysis is performed for each site chosen for the geological storage of CO2 to evaluate the trapping security in sedimentary basins, based on many factors such as CO2 buoyancy, formation water density, lithological heterogeneity and mineralogy.

Screening criteria for co2 storage in oil reservoirs

TL;DR: In this article, the authors lay the groundwork necessary to evaluate whether an oil reservoir might be suitable for CO2 storage and propose a series of criteria for injection into currently producing, but not yet producing, oil fields.

Joule-Thomson cooling due to CO2 injection into natural gas reservoirs

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the importance of Joule-Thomson cooling during CO2 injection into depleted natural gas reservoirs, which is the adiabatic cooling that accompanies the expansion of a real gas.

Subterranean Containment and Long-Term Storage of Carbon Dioxide in Unused Aquifers and in Depleted Natural Gas Reservoirs

TL;DR: A preliminary technical and economic survey on the CO 2 injection system suggests favorable results as discussed by the authors, but more investigations are necessary for assessment of the effect of CO2 injection on groundwater environment.

Modeling the geochemical carbon cycle

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have modeled the slow, long-term cycle in which geochemical processes transfer carbon among land, sea, and atmosphere, and suggested that the earth may have been warmed in the past when buildups of atmospheric carbon dioxide enhanced the greenhouse effect.

Applications of carbon dioxide in enhanced oil recovery

TL;DR: Carbon dioxide has been injected into oil reservoirs for the purpose of recovery of additional oil for the past two decades as mentioned in this paper, and the extent of the industry effort is discussed, and the current level of effort described.
