Prior to the implementation of CO2 injection EOR projects, the screening evaluation of candidate reservoirs will promote the economic benefits of CO2 injection. Currently, a uniform screening method for CO2 miscible flooding does not exist. Based on more than 112 successfully implemented CO2 miscible flooding reservoirs, which was referred in 2010 Worldwide EOR Survey, and CO2 miscible flooding...

CO2 injection is an effective technique for improved oil recovery in light oil reservoirs, especially for water flooding abandoned reservoirs. In this study, the lower part of Es1 reservoirs in Pucheng oilfield was introduced as the target reservoir. By studying the minimum miscible pressure in CO2 flooding, the reservoir could achieve miscible flooding. Long core displacement experiments prove...

core flooding experiments were conducted with the objective of evaluating near miscible surfactant alternating co2 injection and the effect of surfactant concentrations on gas-oil and water displacements in porous media. the core samples were provided from a low permeability mixed wet oil reservoir at 156 °f and 1900 psia. in addition, very few studies of surfactant adsorption on carbonate mine...

Carbon dioxide has been used commercially to recover oil from reservoirs for more than 40 years. Currently, CO2 flooding is the second most applied enhanced oil recovery (EOR) process in the world behind steam flooding. Water alternating gas (WAG) injection has been a popular method to control mobility and improve volumetric sweep efficiency for CO2 flooding. Average EOR is about 9.7% with a ra...

Underground injection of carbon dioxide for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) is a common practice in the oil and gas industry and has often been cited as a proven method of sequestering CO2 (US DOE, 1999). Of all sequestration methods, this is probably the best understood, as carbon dioxide has been used in the oil industry for many years. Additionally, most oil fields have been relatively well char...

Miscible gas injection, as an Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) method, can improve the recovery factor by swelling the residual oil and phasing out the interfacial tension [1]. However, the sweep efficiency of miscible gas injection is not satisfactory because of conformance problems, such as viscous fingering, channelling and gravity override [2]. Foam can solve the problems associated with gas inj...
