A test was conducted in the Longyearbyen CO2 laboratory project to inject CO2 into a Triassic-Jurassic fractured sandstone-shale succession at 700-1000 m depth below the local settlement. Detailed investigation of fracture sets/discontinuities and their characteristics have been carried out, concent...
