Hello authors
thank you for your revised manuscript and the list of changes. Generally, these changes address most of the points raised by the reviewers.
However, before accepting this ms, I would like to insist on one more change: please calculate the volume of the CO2 at the reservoir conditions (depth/pressure, temperature) and then re-calculate the maximum predicted moment for comparison to the room conditions value. This is important, as it will surely be less.
The Mohr-Coulomb diagrams in relation to Reviewer 1 comments are good, but you might want to look at slip and dilation tendency (Morris et al., 1996; Ferrill et al., 1999) too, if not for this paper then for the future. Also, what are the yellow data on the M-C plot? They do not have a corresponding rose plot...
All the best,
Dave

All accepted.
All the best,
