Fundamentals of Enhanced Oil and Gas Recovery from Conventional and Unconventional Reservoirs

Enhanced oil recovery continues to grow in technology and with the ongoing unconventional reservoir activity underway, enhanced oil recovery methods of many kinds will continue to gain in studies and scientific advancements. Reservoir engineers currently have multiple outlets to gain knowledge and are in need of one product solution to go-to for reference that is up to date. Fundamentals of Enhanced Oil and Gas Recovery from Conventional and Unconventional Reservoirs delivers the proper foundation covering all types of currently utilized and upcoming enhanced oil recovery, including methods used in emerging unconventional reservoirs. Going beyond traditional secondary methods, this reference includes advanced water-based EOR methods which are become more popular due to fracturing, CO2 injection methods used in EOR and methods specific to target shale oil and gas activity. Rounding out with a chapter devoted to optimizing the application and economy of EOR methods, Fundamentals of Enhanced Oil and Gas Recovery from Conventional and Unconventional Reservoirs brings reservoir and petroleum engineers up to speed on the latest studies to apply in today's oil and gas reservoir activities. Explains enhanced oil recovery methods focused specifically for unconventional reservoirs with real world case studies and examples providedCreates a practical and theoretical foundation with multiple contributors from various backgroundsIncludes a full range of latest and future methods for enhanced oil recovery, including chemical, waterflooding, CO2 injection, and thermal INDICE: 1.
