ENHANCED OIL RECOVERYAbbreviated EOR) is a generic term for techniques for increasing the amount of crude oil that can be extracted from an oil field. Using EOR, 30-60% of more, of the reservoirs original oil can be extracted compared with 20-40% using primary and secondary recovery. Enhanced oil recovery is achieved by gas injection, chemical injection, ultrasonic simulation, microbial injection, or thermal recovery. Gas 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 the oil into the pipe and up to the surface. In addition to the beneficial effect of the pressure, this method sometimes aids recovery by reducing the visc osity of the crude oil as the gas mixes with it. We specialise in the processes and systems for using CO@ and Natural Gas for Oil Recovery. |
