    Abstract

    A single well characterisation test was conducted at the CO2CRC Otway storage site in Victoria, Australia, in 2011 and repeated in 2014. The near-well permeability was found to have declined nearly 60% since the 2011 test, while the residual saturation inferred from a variety of techniques was lower in 2014. There was a significant change in water chemistry, suggesting an alteration of near-well reservoir properties. Possible reasons for these changes are explored, and the implications for other field tests are discussed.
