Long-distance migration-assisted structural trapping represents an optimal configuration for offshore geological CO₂ storage. In this study, the trapping efficiency of CO₂ was quantitatively analyzed using CMG software, taking into account aqueous solubility and geochemical reactions. The investigation focused on CO₂ migration behavior, mineralogical changes, pH and porosity variations induced by geochemical processes, and their respective contributions to overall carbon storage.
