... emissions) emissions play in this potentially major environmental issue - there is already substantial material available on this debate in the popular and scientific literature. Saskatchewan and the provincial oil industry were interested in CO 2 as an agent for enhanced oil recovery in Saskatchewan...

... Abstract In order to sustain the current production capacity of conventional oil in Western Canada, enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technologies must be increasingly applied. Among these, carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) flooding is a highly attractive possibility A large amount of CO 2 is being produced...

... Abstract An important step in the numerical simulation of in-situ combustion for enhanced oil recovery is the selection of the pseudocomponents used to represent the oil. Frequently the oil is separated according 10 distillation cuts. In addition, a hydrocarbon pseudocomponent called "coke...

... be tolerated for the miscible process. The minimum miscibility pressures (MMP) determined for the above four systems demonstrated that the miscible displacement process using pure CO 2 or impure CO 2 containing up to 9.9 mol % CH 4 (contaminant) as a solvent is a promising enhanced oil recovery (EOR...

... Abstract All of the enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods are outlined in a systematic and balanced manner, and the current impact of these methods is assessed in the light of the field experience. As such, this paper is a timely and comprehensive description of EOR methods, and where they stand...
