CHEMICAL METHODS OF ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY USING ALKALI FLOODING

21 PAGES (3673 WORDS) Chemical Engineering Seminar
The purpose of EOR is to increase oil production, primarily through an increase in temperature, pressure, or an enhancement of the oil’s ability to flow through the reservoir. This study focuses on which chemicals available to flow through the reservoir. This study focuses on which chemicals available in Nigeria are best suited for EOR in Nigeria. The challenge of EOR is that the remaining is located in regions of the reservoir that are difficult to access, and the oil is held in the pores by capillary pressure.
