Modeling Biomineralization for Fault Sealing

We present a novel hydro-geomechanical model that allows for systematic assessment of how biomineralization processes like EICP/MICP influence the sealing of faults in underground gas storage, while carefully balancing permeability and geo-mechanical response, laying the groundwork for more informed application of MICP in underground storage applications.
