EOR/IOR

This paper discusses the effect of injected-polymer viscosity on various aspects of a project, from recovery to surface facilities, including both theoretical arguments and practical field experience—which do not always align.

This study leverages oil-fingerprinting technology and geochemical data to evaluate the fluid connectivity between a main field and its stepout wells.

Strathcona doubles down on heavy oil—sells Montney assets for nearly CAD 3 billion, grabs Canada’s top crude-by-rail hub, and sets sights on MEG Energy in bold growth move.

This work investigates the root cause of strong oil/water emulsion and if sludge formation is occurring within the reservoir using a robust integrated approach.

In this work, a perturbed-chain statistical associating fluid theory equation of state has been developed to characterize heavy-oil-associated systems containing polar components and nonpolar components with respect to phase behavior and physical properties.

Investigation into the parameters affecting the displacement efficiency of CO2 injection under miscible and near-miscible conditions in the presence and absence of mobile water saturation using carbon dioxide core injection experiments.

A numerical simulation study based on experimental data of 2D and 3D models is presented to examine immiscible fingering during field-scale polymer-enhanced oil recovery.

The partnership between GLJ and Energy Fuse Group aims to leverage the expertise of both companies in project management, operational design, and subsurface and commercial evaluations to facilitate effective CO2 storage solutions.

The SPE IOR-EOR Terminology Review Committee has released its recommendations for the use of IOR, EOR, and newly introduced term, assisted oil recovery (AOR).

This paper describes a project in the heavy oil Captain field in the UK sector of the North Sea in which reduced environmental impact dovetails with improved economics.
