This paper presents a case study of oriented tubing-conveyed perforation followed by an acidizing operation to overcome technical challenges posed by a depleted reservoir targeted for a carbon capture, utilization, and storage project.
This paper reviews existing literature, the operator’s records, service-company data, and simulation studies to assess the risk of using seawater in carbonate acidizing.
This guest editorial from the Center for Injection and Seismicity Research (CISR) at The University of Texas at Austin details the emerging risks posed by injection in Texas and what steps might be taken to mitigate them.
