    Abstract:

    The loess tableland has complex surface conditions,and CO2 flooding in ultra-low permeability reservoirs faces the high density of well patterns,the high injection pressure,and the easy gas channeling. Moreover,the development is characterized by water-alternating-gas injection to mitigate gas-channeling.As a result,there are multiple CO2 leakage points and high intensity in this area,so the layout and monitoring accuracy of CO2 monitoring points are demanding,and the existing safety monitoring systems are hardly applicable. In view of these problems,according to the identification of CO2 leakage risks in ultra-low permeability reservoirs in the loess tableland and the analysis of CO2 spatial migration in geological bodies,a three-dimensional multi-index CO2 safety monitoring system was established,covering cap rock,wellbores,deep and shallow groundwater,soil,surface water,and atmosphere. Besides,CO2 safety monitoring was practically carried out to further build a safety evaluation system of CO2 storage. From the results of safety monitoring and evaluation,there was no abnormality for all indexes after CO2 injection and no CO2 geological leakage occured in the test area. The safety of CO2 storage was at the levelⅠ.
