Reservoir
As the industry accelerates carbon capture, use, and storage initiatives, modeling innovations for carbon-dioxide injection and enhanced oil recovery have become critical for optimizing recovery and ensuring secure storage. Recent studies highlight a shift toward data-driven and hybrid approaches that combine computational efficiency with operational practicality.
This paper assesses the technical feasibility of geological carbon storage in the operator’s Brazilian brownfields, focusing on mature oil fields and associated saline aquifers.
Operators are turning to new gas-lift and nanoparticle-fluid technologies to drive up production rates.
