Technology on In-Situ Gas Generation to Recover Residual Oil Reserves, (Final).

DE2008936315

Publication Date	2008
Personal Author	Bakhtiyaro, S.
Page Count	155
Abstract	The project involved a final research and development in the United States a technology that was developed at the Institute for Geology and Development of Fossil Fuels in Moscow, Russia. Before the technology can be convincingly adopted by United States oil and gas producers, a preliminary laboratory research was conducted. In Phase I, the research team verified if the Russian formulations generate sufficient pressure and CO2 concentration in-situ so that miscibility can be attained with typical oils. In the second phase of the project, the research team investigated an effectiveness of the foams generated by this process in order to improve sweep efficiency in porous rock with a range of permeabilities.
