In a study that applied alternative carbon carrier technology to enhanced oil recovery (EOR) scenarios, researchers at The University of Texas at Austin found that the new method recovered up to 19.5% more oil and stored up to 17.5% more carbon than conventional EOR methods.
This paper presents a novel methodology for assessing the rapid mineral carbonation of carbon dioxide through geochemical interactions with carbon-, magnesium-, and iron-rich minerals abundant in geological formations.
Casing deformation has emerged as a major challenge in China’s unconventional oil and gas fields, prompting the development of new solutions to address the issue.
