Enhanced oil recovery
Nov 1st
Article by mingming How it worksEnhanced oil recovery is achieved by gas injection, chemical injection, ultrasonic stimulation, microbial injection, or thermal recovery (which includes cyclic steam, steamflooding, and fireflooding). Gas injectionGas injection is presently the most-commonly used approach to enhanced recovery. A gas is injected into the oil-bearing stratum under high pressure. That pressure pushes More >
EOR Enhanced Oil Recovery Worldwide
Mar 27th
Enhanced oil recovery (EOR), also referred to as improved oil recovery or tertiary oil recovery, is most often achieved by injecting a liquid or gas into an oil reservoir, thereby lowering oil viscosity and increasing the amount of oil available for production. Some of the more common EOR methods include CO2-EOR, thermal EOR and chemical More >
Ozone Hole Recovery
Feb 25th
SYNOPSISThis paper seek to take on Ozone depletion from the Stratosphere, a surrounding layer of the Earth’s Atmosphere. The ozone layer, found in the stratosphere, helps to protect the Earth from dangerous Ultra Violet (UV) radiation (or rays) emanating from the Sun. Ozone Layer as named is made up of ozone gas; it is naturally More >
The Coming Boom in Enhanced Oil Recovery
Jul 21st
While a cult of Peak Oil adherents fret about the end of the hydrocarbon age, we’ve been focusing on trends that will provide buffering to the upcoming declines in oil production. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying that Peak Oil won’t happen, however the dreaded peak may turn into a downward sloping plateau supported More >
