In this study, pressure response at A monitoring well in early stage of CO2 geological storage were predicted against pressure build-up at CO2 injector after starting CO2 injection into a deep saline aquifer to design the monitoring well distance from the injector and resolution or sensitivity of a pressure transmitter installed in the monitoring well. The numerical simulations on pressure distributions and expanding CO2 plume front were carried out using a reservoir simulator, CMG-STARS, for the aquifer (10 km in radius, 50m in height) with open boundary under 1,000 m from the ground or seabed level. The ratio of pressure response at the monitoring well against the pressure build-up at the injector have been presented for various monitoring locations (500 to 5,000 m from a injector) and homogeneous and heterogeneous models of horizontal permeability distribution in the aquifer (Base Model and Model 1, 2 & 3) and CO2 injection patters during 100 days (Scheme 1, 2 & 3). It has been presented from the numerical simulation results that the monitoring well radial distance from the injector is recommended to be 2,000 to 4,000 m or less than 1000 m when the resolution or sensitivity of the pressure transmitter is 1kPa or 10kPa, respectively.

There is a critical situation that a huge amount of greenhouse gases is emitted into the atmosphere from natural coal fires in underground coal seams and spontaneous combustions in coal piles in the world. To reduce the emissions of combustion gases, such as CO2, CH4, etc., some technical challenges and researches are required related to CO2 flux measurements, developing an effective chemical water-solution extinguishes coal fires and inhibits spontaneous combustion, constructing a numerical simulation model to treat the aging effect in coal heating rate. In this article, firstly, the previous studies were reviewed to explain measurement results of CO2 emission from coal fire/spontaneous combustion fields and the aging model used to simulate coal heating rate. Secondary, a trial development of some chemical solutions has been introduced to inhibit microscopic and macroscopic coal oxidations by forming a gel. Especially, sodium meta silicate solution showed a relatively good performance shifting the critical self-ignition temperature (CSIT) of a low rank coal to be 4 to 5℃ higher than that of water by forming gel with CO2 gases in the air and combustion gases emitted from coals. The brooking effect in macro scale by forming gel is also expected to extinguish coal seam fires by reducing aperture width in fractures connecting to the atmosphere. A numerical simulation using ANSI FLUENT has showed an extinguishing fire process of an underground coal seam including a horizontal fracture that is connected inlet and outlet fractures being air paths for air and combustion gas, respectively. Finally, the the research challenges required for technical developments have been proposed to carry a project extinguishing the coal seam fires and spontaneous combustions of coal piles with reducing CO2 emissions.
