Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) Processes: Chemical, Thermal, and Miscible
Course Description
The goal of this course is to provide attendants with solid basics of different aspects, types, and application of the three main types of Enhanced oil Recovery (EOR) processes. The three types of oil recovered are identified to include primary, secondary, and enhanced oil recovery. After the reservoir is depleted after primary and secondary processes, enhanced oil recovery will be introduced targeting the residual oil saturation of this field. This course introduces different types of enhanced oil recovery processes including thermal, miscible, and chemical methods. Basics, applications, and screening criteria for each method will be presented. Pilot design will be covered. Many actual field examples will be presented and discussed plus theoretical aspects of these methods.

By the end of this course, you will learn;

  1. How to screen actual reservoir to select the suitable EOR method
  2. Different types and sub-types of EOR processes
  3. Design pilot test for actual selected apartment of a reservoir
  4. Geological modeling and reservoir characterization
  5. Required data for analysis chemical, thermal and miscible methods
  6. New advancements and research outcomes of EOR methods

Reservoir engineers, production engineers, geologists and geoscientists who are interested in enhanced oil processes.
