... Abstract One objective of the proposed paper, given Kuwait's extremely high CO 2 -equivalent emissions per capita, high energy consumption per capita, and the international environmental agreements Kuwait has agreed to abide by, is to inspire action by decision makers to increase the share...

... by 2050. There is a strong focus on reducing CO 2 emissions from transport fuels. Refining industry can effectively contribute by gradually transitioning to e.g . new feedstock's hence reducing product-related CO 2 emissions (in combination with more efficient vehicles); integration with chemicals...

... is an important step for NCG-SAGD. Based on the high temperature and high pressure phase-equilibrium experimental devices, the solubility of NCG like CH 4 , CO 2 and N 2 in super-heavy oil has been measured. Also the thermal property of heavy oil saturated with these NCG were tested separately. A numerical...

... is still low as 5-10%. Therefore, seeking for techniques to enhance oil recovery in these complex plays is inevitable. In this paper, two different approaches have been integrated to investigate the feasibility of three different miscible-gases which are CO 2 , lean gases, and rich gases. Firstly...

... Abstract The Water Alternating Gas flooding method aims to improve sweep efficiency during CO 2 flooding. This study has screened three waterflooded sandstone reservoirs for CO 2 injection to apply the Stalkup Model. An empirical correlation is derived from the Stalkup Model parameters Sorw...

... Abstract A detailed understanding of the composition of sour gas accumulations is essential for facility design and for production forecasting. Compositional data like H 2 S and CO 2 contents, net sales gas volume and condensate gas ratio also form the basis for all project economics...

... Abstract Adsorption of CH 4 , CO 2 and 10%CO 2 /CH 4 on mature Qusaiba shale (1.81% TOC) is studied at 50, 100 and 150°C and 45 bars maximum pressure. Adsorption of CH 4 was the lowest at all temperatures. As CO 2 percentage increased, adsorption uptake increases concluding that CO 2...

... to a non-decarbonized product, a regulatory requirement to capture a specific percentage of the CO 2 or a specification related to the CO 2 content of exported products. It can also be influenced by the integration of the CCS plant within the base plant. For the Peterhead project, the carbon capture...

... is relatively abundant in anthropogenic emissions, but generally expensive to capture. Value chains linking industrial sources of CO 2 to appropriate field targets are expected to be the key enabler of CO 2 EOR, initially from niche sources. Robust technical and non-technical integration across the capture...

The technical discussion in this paper uses information gained from Fluor's experiences on several sour mega projects and covers: Inlet gas conditioning to ensure there is no hydrocarbon condensation during the gas treating step Removal of H 2 S, CO 2 , COS, and mercaptans from the gas...

... Abstract Reduction of green house gases (GHGs) emissions from the combustion of fossil fuels, such as coal, petroleum products and natural gas is a big Challenge. Especially, CO 2 due to its role in global climate change. Industrial boilers are considered to be one of the largest stationary...
