Improving Oil Recovery Using Integrated Evaluation Techniques

The paper states that the Kansas Geological Survey has developed new technologies and strategies to improve oil recovery from Kansas's oil fields. The focus has been to provide increased access to public data through online digital programs, development of software to evaluate electric logs, improved reservoir characterization, modeling and computer...

Independents Day at SPE/DOE 2002 Improved Oil Recovery Symposiumá

The paper mentions that current activity in Oklahoma coalbed methane in the Northeast Shelf and Arkoma Basin reveals a viable source of new gas reserves. As in most coalbed methane basins, completion and stimulation practices have a major influence on well productivity and ultimate economics. For conventional oil and gas...

CO2 Flooding in the Morrow (North Midcontinent)

The paper reveals that Miscible CO2 flooding is a feasible option to help increase oil production from Morrowan reservoirs in western Kansas and Panhandle Oklahoma. There is a significant recovery potential for properly applied projects at a current threshold level of about $15-20/barrel oil. Miscible CO2 flooding has proven to...

Microbial Options for Increasing Oil Recovery

The paper points out that the microbial technologies are a lower-cost option for operators to consider as they address well productivity, injectivity/disposal, or improved oil recovery in mature oil leases. When properly tailored to the problem, microbial solutions can be a profitable option. It also adds that operators of mature...

Predicting Waterflood Recovery Performance

The paper states that for waterfloods, an ongoing prediction and surveillance program can determine ultimate recovery and improve timing of events, such as initial water breakthrough and peak production. This helps maximize oil recovery at the lowest water-oil ratio and operating cost level. Waterflooding is the most successful and widely...
