Synopsis

The Enhanced Oil Recovery Series delivers a multivolume approach that addresses the latest research on various types of EOR. The second volume in the series, Gas Injection Methods, helps engineers focus on the latest developments in one of the fastest growing areas. Different techniques are described in addition to the latest technology such as data mining and unconventional reservoirs. Supported field case studies are included to show a bridge between research and practical application, making it useful for both academics and practicing engineers. Structured to start with an introduction on various gas types and different gas injection methods, screening criteria for choosing gas injection method, and environmental issues during gas injection methods, the editors then advance on to more complex content, guiding the engineer into newer topics involving CO2 such as injection in tight oil reservoirs, shale oil reservoirs, carbonated water, data mining, and formation damage. Supported by a full spectrum of contributors, this book gives petroleum engineers and researchers the latest research developments and field applications to drive innovation for the future.

• Helps readers understand the latest research and practical applications specific to foam flooding and gas injection
• Provides readers with the latest technology, including nanoparticle-stabilized foam for mobility control and carbon storage in shale oil reservoirs
• Teaches users about additional methods such as data mining applications and economic and environmental considerations

From the Back Cover

Enhanced oil recovery continues to advance and innovate to meet future oil and gas demands, but engineers often search through multiple sources to obtain the latest research, technology, and applications. Enhanced Oil Recovery Series delivers a multi-volume approach that addresses the latest research on various types of EOR. The first volume in the series, Gas Injection Methods, helps engineers focus on the latest developments in one fast-growing area. Different techniques are described in addition to the latest technology such as nanotechnology application, data mining, and unconventional reservoirs. Supported field case studies are included to show a bridge between research and practical application, making it useful for both academics and practicing engineers. Structured to start with an introduction on characterization techniques, properties, and foam stability, the editors then advance on to more complex content, guiding the engineer into newer topics involving CO2 such as injection in tight oil reservoirs, and formation damage. Supported by a full spectrum of contributors, Enhanced Oil Recovery Series: Gas Injection Methods gives petroleum engineers and researchers the latest research developments and field applications to drive innovation for the future.
