EOR Measurements
Water Flooding remains the primary method of oil recovery, but typical recovery is 20% to 50% of the original oil in place. The oil remaining after water flood is a resource for various EOR techniques. Enhanced Oil Recovery is oil recovery by the injection of materials not normally present in the reservoir and the measurement of EOR Process is the difference in the oil actually produced versus the amount of oil projected to be produced had the EOR process not been initiated. The following Laboratory measurements play a key role in screening, design and evaluation of various EOR processes.
- Wettability determination
- Interfacial tension
- Minimum Miscibility Pressure – Slim Tube
- Minimum Miscibility Pressure – Rising Bubble, VIT
