Enhanced recovery
This paper discusses waterflooding and field-development implications of subsea seawater treatment for improved oil recovery.
This work evaluates CO2-based fracturing as a sustainable development approach for shale gas reservoirs in the Burgos Basin of Mexico.
This paper presents an autonomous, data-driven solution designed specifically for intermittent well optimization.

This paper presents a novel mathematical model for design and evaluation of fluoroboric acid treatments that takes into account the chemical kinetics and equilibrium aspects of important reactions and fluid flow inside the reservoir rock.
-
In Part 1 of a series of articles, the author highlights candidate selection and problem clarification. This section describes how the success rate of solving conformance problems is improved by reducing assumptions and improving your problem understanding prior to executing a solution.
-
The authors of this paper develop a robust history-matched reservoir simulation model capable of predicting polymerflooding performance in the first such pilot to enhance heavy oil recovery on Alaska’s North Slope.
-
This paper presents autonomous-inflow-control-device installations in multiple horizontal wells of the Singue oilfield development in Ecuador.
-
This paper presents the results of a comprehensive study performed to improve understanding of deep bottom-up water injection, which enabled optimizing the recovery of a heavy oil field in South Oman.
-
The objective of this study is to conduct a comprehensive review of the latest technologies and work flows developed for heavy oil reservoir management.
-
The authors of this paper evaluate the effectiveness of production-enhancement activities for a long-string, gas-lifted producer using distributed-temperature-sensing technology.
-
The authors of this paper write that 4D data are an integral part of a reservoir-management program and, together with geological and production history data, are being used to update reservoir models to further the goals of field development.

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?
