Reservoir Dynamics in Proposed Operational Scenarios Where CO2-EOR Fields are Transitioned From CO2-Flood Enhanced Oil Recovery to Dedicated Carbon Storage: A Field Case Study

Summary

This technical report investigates the feasibility of transitioning existing CO2-Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) fields into dedicated carbon storage sites. It employs a generalized reservoir model, informed by real field data, to simulate various operational scenarios and evaluate their impact on pressure dynamics, CO2 plume migration, and long-term containment. The study provides critical insights for developing best practices to effectively repurpose oil fields for secure and reliable CO2 sequestration.
