Book excerpt: Procurement, construction, and installation of unconsolidated sand packs and equipment for displacement studies up to 5000 psi is complete and the equipment is in routine use. One accomplishment was sampling equipment for taking samples at pressures up to 8000 psi during displacement and phase behavior studies. 21 displacements have been made using synthetic crudes. Results suggest that miscibility can be generated between pure CO/sub 2/ and this oil at 1100 psig. At a displacement temperature of 109/sup 0/F, miscibility is generated through multiple contacts and the data suggest that the generation mechanism is one of condensation rather than vaporization. In displacements in which the injection gas was a CO/sub 2/-CH/sub 4/ mixture, the minimum miscibility pressure appears to increase approximately linearly with increasing methane content. Increased CH/sub 4/ concentrations over those originally present were observed in all displacements where the pressure was less than that required for first contact miscibility. Thus it was tentatively concluded that the presence of a bank is not in itself an indication that miscibility was not attained, but only an indication that the mechanism was one of generation of miscibility through mass transfer (multiple contacts).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fossil fuels still need to meet the growing demand of global economic development, yet they are often considered as one of the main sources of the CO2 release in the atmosphere. CO2, which is the primary greenhouse gas (GHG), is periodically exchanged among the land surface, ocean, and atmosphere where various creatures absorb and produce it daily. However, the balanced processes of producing and consuming the CO2 by nature are unfortunately faced by the anthropogenic release of CO2. Decreasing the emissions of these greenhouse gases is becoming more urgent. Therefore, carbon sequestration and storage (CSS) of CO2, its utilization in oil recovery, as well as its conversion into fuels and chemicals emerge as active options and potential strategies to mitigate CO2 emissions and climate change, energy crises, and challenges in the storage of energy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the enhanced oil recovery (EOR) survey in Oil and Gas Journal (2010), approximately 280,000bbl of oil per day or 6% of US crude oil production was produced by carbon dioxide (CO2) EOR. Just like any other gas injection processes, field CO2 flooding projects suffer from poor sweep efficiency due to early gas breakthrough, unfavorable mobility ratio, reservoir heterogeneity, viscous fingering and channeling, and gravity segregation. Many of these problems are believed to be alleviated or overcome by foaming the injected CO2. Since the 1970s, CO2-foam flooding has been used as a commercially viable method for EOR processes. Foams, defined as a mixture of internal gas phase in a continuous external liquid phase containing surfactant molecules, can improve sweep efficiency significantly by reducing gas mobility, especially in the reservoirs with a high level of geological heterogeneity. This chapter consists of three main parts: the first part (Section 2.1) deals with fundamentals on foams in porous media and recent advances in this field of research, including three foam states (weak-foam, strong-foam, and intermediate states) and two steady-state flow regimes of strong foams; the second part (Section 2.2) overviews field examples of foam-assisted CO2-EOR processes; and the third part (Section 2.3) covers typical field injection and production responses if CO2-foam pilot or field-scale treatments are successful.

Download or read book Enhanced Oil Recovery, II written by E.C. Donaldson and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1989-07-01 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by foremost experts in the field, and formulated with attention to classroom use for advanced studies in reservoir characterization and processes, this book reviews and summarises state-of-the-art progress in the field of enhanced oil recovery (EOR). All of the available techniques: alkaline flooding; surfactant flooding; carbon dioxide flooding; steam flooding; in-situ combustion; gas injection; miscible flooding; microbial recovery; and polymer flooding are discussed and compared. Together with Volume I, it presents a complete text on enhanced recovery technology and, hence, is an almost indispensible reference text.This second volume compliments the first by presenting as complete an analysis as possible of current oilfield theory and technology, for accomplishment of maximum production of oil. Many different processes have been developed and field tested for enhancement of oil recovery. The emerging philosophy is that no single process is applicable to all petroleum reservoirs. Each must be treated as unique, and carefully evaluated for characteristics that are amenable to one or two of the proven technologies of EOR. This book will aid the engineer in field evaluation and selection of the best EOR technology for a given oilfield. Even the emerging technology of microbial applications to enhance oil recovery are reviewed and explained in terms that are easily understood by field engineers.The book is presented in a manner suitable for graduate studies. The only addition required of teachers is to supply example problems for class work. An appendix includes a reservoir mathematic model and program for general application that can also be used for teaching.

Download or read book Pore-scale Investigations of Carbon Dioxide Applications for Enhanced Oil Recovery and Geological Sequestration written by Dayo A. Akindipe and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carbon dioxide (CO2) capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is becoming a major climate change mitigation strategy. Some key issues that have limited accelerated development are injectivity losses due to near-wellbore salt precipitation during geological sequestration and poor displacement efficiency during utilization for enhanced oil recovery. To understand and mitigate these challenges, a pore-scale approach that combines flow tests with digital rock physics is proposed. This was implemented to visualize, quantify, and assess CO2/oil/brine/rock interactions that culminate in salt precipitation. It was also used to evaluate the pore morphology changes and the oil recovery performance encountered during carbonated water injection (CWI). In the studies on salt precipitation, three evolution stages—advection-dominated, transition, and diffusion-dominated evaporative drying—were observed. A new mechanism that occurs during the transition from advection to diffusion-limited flow termed reverse solute diffusion was also delineated. This mechanism was typified by upward solute diffusion from regions of lower concentration within the aqueous phase to a highly concentrated evaporating front. The time required for precipitation initiation was shorter in an intermediate-wet carbonate than in a weakly oil-wet carbonate. Higher amounts of salt deposits were formed in the more hydrophilic (intermediate-wet) carbonate, leading to an intensification of porosity reduction in this rock. In addition, the presence of oil within the pore space did not hinder the precipitation process but suppressed the reverse flow of solutes toward the evaporation front, thereby creating localized precipitation at the front. Mineral dissolution via CWI-induced reactive transport is one way to increase near-wellbore injectivity. In experiments involving oil/carbonated water/carbonate rock systems, flow channeling resulted in significant mineral dissolution. This led to the formation of high-conductivity wormholes with two distinct patterns. The first was a conical wormhole formed at a low flow rate where diffusion was significant. Whereas, the second was a dominant wormhole developed at a higher injection rate where advection controlled the transport of reactive species to the flow boundaries. Experiments performed to determine the underlying oil recovery mechanisms during CWI in oil-wet carbonate rocks revealed that carbonated low salinity seawater containing definite amounts of potential determining ions (Ca2+, Mg2+, and SO42−) promotes superior oil recovery compared to other brine samples. This enhanced performance was evidenced by the dominance of wettability reversal to near-neutral states, which created a more favorable capillary pressure required for pore-level displacements. Wettability alteration originated from the reduction in electrostatic attraction between oil/brine and brine/rock interfaces through the surface adsorption of SO42− ions in low-pH environments.

This book was released on 2017-03-30 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the feasibility of CO2-EOR and sequestration in a mature Indian oil field, pursuing for the first time a cross-disciplinary approach that combines the results from reservoir modeling and flow simulation, rock physics modeling, geomechanics, and time-lapse (4D) seismic monitoring study. The key findings presented indicate that the field under study holds great potential for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and subsequent CO2 storage. Experts around the globe argue that storing CO2 by means of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) could support climate change mitigation by reducing the amount of CO2 emissions in the atmosphere by ca. 20%. CO2-EOR and sequestration is a cutting-edge and emerging field of research in India, and there is an urgent need to assess Indian hydrocarbon reservoirs for the feasibility of CO2-EOR and storage. Combining the fundamentals of the technique with concrete examples, the book is essential reading for all researchers, students and oil & gas professionals who want to fully understand CO2-EOR and its geologic sequestration process in mature oil fields.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims at presenting, describing, and summarizing the latest advances in polymer flooding regarding the chemical synthesis of the EOR agents and the numerical simulation of compositional models in porous media, including a description of the possible applications of nanotechnology acting as a booster of traditional chemical EOR processes. A large part of the world economy depends nowadays on non-renewable energy sources, most of them of fossil origin. Though the search for and the development of newer, greener, and more sustainable sources have been going on for the last decades, humanity is still fossil-fuel dependent. Primary and secondary oil recovery techniques merely produce up to a half of the Original Oil In Place. Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) processes are aimed at further increasing this value. Among these, chemical EOR techniques (including polymer flooding) present a great potential in low- and medium-viscosity oilfields. • Describes recent advances in chemical enhanced oil recovery. • Contains detailed description of polymer flooding and nanotechnology as promising boosting tools for EOR. • Includes both experimental and theoretical studies. About the Authors Patrizio Raffa is Assistant Professor at the University of Groningen.
