Co-optimization of Enhanced Oil Recovery and Carbon Sequestration [PDF]

In this paper, we present what is to our knowledge the first theoretical economic analysis of CO2- enhanced oil recovery (EOR). This technique, which has been used successfully in a number of oil plays (notably in West Texas, Wyoming, and Saskatchewan ...

Eco-friendly baker’s yeast for Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery (MEOR) / Mohd Sabri Zulkifli … [et al.] [PDF]

, 2014
The oil and gas industry contribute significantly to Malaysia’s economy growth. Besides that, PETRONAS expects the implementation of improved oil recovery (IOR) and enhanced oil recovery (EOR) projects to contribute 150,000 barrels per day to the ...

Selection of an effective biocide and toxicity evaluation for a specific MEOR (microbial enhanced oil recovery) microbial formulation

, 1989
The two major environmental impacts associated with microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) are possible contamination of surface and groundwater and contamination of agricultural land. Other potential environmental problems associated with MEOR processes include changes in indigenous microflora in reservoirs caused by injection of nonindigenous ...

Lipopeptide biosurfactants for enhanced oil recovery: characterization and efficiency

Siberian Journal of Life Sciences and Agriculture
Background. Oil remains a critical resource in the global energy sector, accounting for approximately 30% of worldwide energy consumption. However, conventional primary and secondary recovery methods extract only 20-40% of oil reserves, which stimulates ...

Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery: 3D Simulation with Gravity Effects

, 2010
Microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) utilizes the activity of microorganisms, where microorganisms simultaneously grow in a reservoir and convert substrate into recovery enhancing products (usually, surfactants).
