Day 3: Oil Recovery Methods
- Primary Recovery:
- Relies on natural reservoir energy (e.g., gas cap drive, water drive) to push oil to the surface.
- Secondary Recovery:
- Involves injecting fluids (water or gas) into the reservoir to maintain or increase reservoir pressure.
- Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR):
- Thermal Methods:
- Steam injection:
- In-situ combustion: Ignites the oil in the reservoir to generate heat.
- Chemical Methods:
- Polymer flooding: Injects polymers to improve waterflood efficiency.
- Surfactant flooding: Reduces interfacial tension between oil and water.
- Alkali flooding: Alters the pH of the reservoir fluid to improve oil mobility.
- Gas Injection:
- Injects gases like carbon dioxide, nitrogen, or flue gas to improve oil recovery.
- Miscible gas injection: Injects gases that mix with the oil, reducing its viscosity
- Artificial Lift Technology
