    • CO2 will rapidly migrate toward the up-tilt direction of the formation under buoyancy when CO2 is stored in the sloping aquifers. This phenomenon is not conducive to the storage security. In this paper, we are proposed setting water injection wells at a certain distance from the CO2 injection well in the up-tilt direction of the formation. Then hydraulic barrier is created to retard upward CO2 migration. The numerical model is set up to investigate the effectiveness of this approach, and to analyze the effects of some factors, for instance, the injection position, the injection distance and the injection rate. The results show that the hydraulic barrier caused by injecting water can effectively retard upward CO2 migration and enhance CO2 dissolution. Pumping water can significantly reduce the formation pressure. To ensure that CO2 is completely retarded, the length of the injection water needs to be greater than the thickness of the CO2 plume, even injecting water through all thickness of the formation. The rate of the injection water is the key factor affecting the effectiveness of the hydraulic barrier. The effectiveness is better when the injection water well is closer to the CO2 injection well. The water can be injected just before the arrival of CO2 plume to reduce the amount of injected water and energy consumption.
