CO2 EOR

ExxonMobil’s Liza Phase 1 and Phase 2 project and ADNOC’s CCUS Evolution Journey were the winners at the conference taking place this week in Dhahran.

Chevron has some new ideas on how to get more oil for less cost out of shale wells in their early years.

In the US, localized opposition and regulatory uncertainty are threatening to kill or severely limit the use of carbon capture, use, and storage (CCUS) in the fight against climate change.

In this paper, the authors evaluate the simultaneous optimization of CO2 storage and oil recovery using multiple injection strategies.

The $1-billion carbon capture project in Texas is revived after a 3-year hiatus.

This paper presents a discussion of main concepts, challenges, and opportunities relating to subsea system design for CO2 injection in carbon capture and sequestration applications.

Carbon capture and storage, with the potential for usage, will be crucial if the world is to prevent global warming. While Norway has been injecting captured CO2 in saline aquifers since the mid-1990s, there has been no attempt, and no plans exist, in Europe to use CO2 for EOR. Why not?

At the center of a rush to build carbon storage is the state of Louisiana, where the number of applications to build long-term storage is equal to half the sites operating globally.

A big jump in the tax incentives offered for putting CO2 in the ground, hopefully forever, has set off a mad rush to sequester CO2. But is that really the best option?

ADNOC lays out a $15-billion installment in its long-term plan to reduce its carbon footprint.
