Abstract Flue gas flooding is one of the important technologies to improve oil recovery and achieve greenhouse storage. In order study multicomponent flue storage capacity enhanced (EOR) performance water-alternating (flue gas–WAG) injection after continuous waterflooding in an reservoir, a long core system was built. The experimental results showed that factor gas–WAG increased by 21.25% could...

During the Development Phase of U.S. Southwest Regional Partnership on Carbon Sequestration, supercritical CO2 was continuously injected into deep oil-bearing Morrow B formation Farnsworth Unit in Texas for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR). The project approximately 94 kilotons to study geologic carbon storage during CO2-EOR. A three-dimensional (3D) surface seismic dataset acquired 2013 characteriz...

A passive seismic monitoring campaign was carried out in the frame of a CO2-Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) pilot project in Alberta, Canada. Our analysis focuses on a two-week period during which prominent downhole pressure fluctuations in the reservoir were accompanied by a leakage of CO2 and CH4 along the monitoring well equipped with an array of short-period borehole geophones. We applied state...

differential scanning calorimetry (dsc), temperature programmed desorption mass spectrometry (tpd-ms) and small angle neutron scattering (sans) were used to investigate co2 uptake by the wyodak coal. adsorption of carbon dioxide on wyodak coal was studied by dsc. the exotherms evident at low temperatures are associated with the uptake of co2 suggesting that carbon dioxide interacts strongly wit...

Effective multiphase flow and transport simulations are a critical tool for screening, selection, operation of geological CO2 storage sites. The relative permeability curve assumed these can introduce large source uncertainty. It significantly impacts forecasts all aspects the reservoir simulation, from trapping efficiency phase behavior to volumes oil, water, gas produced. Careful consideratio...

water alternating gas (wag) technique is used in the petroleum industry to inject carbon dioxide (co2) into underground formations either for sequestration or enhanced oil recovery (eor) processes. co2 injection causes reactions with formation brine or aquifer and produces carbonic acid, the acid dissolves calcite and changes flow behavior significantly. modeling and investigating effects of co...

Over the years, naturally occurring CO2 has been used in many enhanced oil recovery (EOR) projects United States [...]
