DOE-Sponsored Field Test Demonstrates Viability of Simultaneous CO2 Storage and Enhanced Oil Recovery in Carbonate Reservoirs

Green Car Congress

The huff-and-puff method of enhanced oil recovery proceeds in three phases: injection (the huff stage); “soaking” for a short period of time; and production (the puff stage). Following 2 weeks of “soaking,” the well was placed back into production. to complete the test in the Northwest McGregor Oil Field in Williams County, N.D.
