This study evaluates the effect of Land’s Trapping Constant (C) on CO? residual trapping behavior in Field
“P”, a depleted oil reservoir in the Bekasap Formation, Central Sumatra Basin, using an existing threedimensional
reservoir simulation model. Continuous pure CO? injection was simulated at a rate of 1
MMSCFD for 10 years, followed by 100 years of post-injection monitoring. Sensitivity analysis was
conducted by varying Land’s Trapping Constant from ???? = 1 to ???? = 7 to represent low-to-high residual
trapping behavior, while ???? = 1, ???? = 3, and ???? = 6 were selected as representative scenarios for CO? plume
visualization. The estimated CO? storage capacity of the reservoir model is 1.26 MtCO?, with a total injected
CO? mass of 0.19 MtCO? and a storage efficiency of 15.19%, which remain identical for all sensitivity
scenarios because these parameters are controlled mainly by pore volume, CO? density, injection rate,
injection duration, and pressure constraint. The simulation results show that increasing Land’s Trapping
Constant reduces residual trapping performance, as the Residual Trapping Index decreases from 20.71% at
???? = 1 to 5.42% at ???? = 7. In contrast, the Mobile Ratio increases from 6.40% at ???? = 1 to approximately
18.64% at ???? = 7, indicating greater mobile gas persistence at higher C values. The CO? component
distribution confirms that the main sensitivity occurs in the gas phase, where residual gas decreases and
mobile gas increases as C becomes larger, while CO? in the liquid phases shows smaller variation. Plume
visualization further indicates that post-injection plume behavior becomes more distinguishable after 100
years, where lower C values leave a more visible residual saturation trail and provide more favorable storage
behavior by reducing mobile CO?. Therefore, Land’s Trapping Constant does not control volumetric storage
capacity under the evaluated scenario, but strongly influences residual trapping, mobile gas persistence,
and long-term CO? storage security.
