The effectiveness of CCS relies heavily on understanding the multiphase behavior and fluid flow in geological formations where CO2 is injected for long-term storage. This paper investigates the multiphase behavior and fluid flow dynamics during CO2 sequestration, focusing on the interaction between supercritical CO2 (scCO2), formation brine, and the geological matrix. We review current literature, present a detailed methodology for analyzing multiphase flow in porous media, and discuss the results of numerical simulations and experimental studies. The findings highlight the importance of accurately modeling multiphase systems to ensure the safe and efficient storage of CO2, offering insights into optimizing injection strategies and predicting long-term storage behavior.
