Carbon-Dioxide-Enhanced Oil Production from the Citronelle Oil Field in the Rodessa Formation, South Alabama

Other (Open)

The principal objective of the project is to provide the geologic and reservoir engineering analysis and field testing that will permit the operators of the Citronelle Oil Field to successfully apply CO2-EOR to increase oil recovery and extend the productive life of the field. The project will proceed from the analysis of existing well logs to determine, in the greatest detail possible, the structure of the Rodessa Formation in the vicinity of the Citronelle Field, through seismic measurements to improve spatial resolution of the stratigraphy and movement of CO2, to a demonstration of increased production from the wells. A second objective is to establish and transfer to industry the engineering expertise with which apply CO2-EOR at other sites having geologic structure similar to that of the Rodessa Formation, which is very different from the Permian Basin structure where CO2-EOR is a well established and successful tertiary oil recovery technology.
