“…CO 2 geostorage combined with enhanced oil recovery (CO 2 ‐EOR) is an attractive and economic solution for reducing anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating global warming (Cantucci et al, ; Emberley et al, ; Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, ). The targeted oil reservoirs, however, are typically oil wet (Cuiec , ), which drastically reduces residual (Al‐Khdheeawi et al, ; Al‐Menhali et al, ; Al‐Menhali & Krevor, ; Chaudhary et al, ; Iglauer, ; Krevor et al, ; Rahman et al, ) and structural (Naylor et al, ; Iglauer, Al‐Yaseri, et al, ; Iglauer, Pentland, & Busch, ; Iglauer, ; Arif et al, ) trapping capacities and significantly accelerates vertical CO 2 migration (Al‐Khdheeawi et al, ), which is detrimental as the injected CO 2 must not leak back to the surface.…”
