Reservoir
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 study assesses the advantages, constraints, and necessary enhancements of both passive and active electromagnetic techniques in the context of carbon capture and storage.
This paper presents a novel workflow with multiobjective optimization techniques to assess the integration of pressure-management methodologies for permanent geological carbon dioxide storage in saline aquifers.
