MRCSP Region: Petroleum Fields Database

Comprehensive characterization of carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) opportunities throughout the ten-state region. Spanning from the offshore Atlantic Coastal Plain through the Appalachian and Michigan basins, this region hosts a diverse assemblage of reservoir types and provides multiple CCUS targets. A key component of this research is the evaluation of opportunities for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in legacy oil fields via carbon dioxide (CO2) floods. The latest phase of MRCSP research added several new attributes to an already comprehensive database in order to identify and rank the best opportunities for CO2-EOR throughout the 10-state region. Detailed reservoir parameters are necessary to perform a comprehensive evaluation of any given EOR target, and a ranking of opportunities depends on both availability of data and relative consideration, or weight, assigned to the various attributes. A renewed focus on CO2-EOR also helped to identify information severely lacking in the MRCSP region, such as permeability and oil gravity.
