Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)
We design and implement EOR projects that not only increase reserves but can also align with sustainability goals, as in the case of CO2-EOR.
Maximizing the Productive Life of Your Assets
Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) encompasses a set of advanced techniques designed to increase the recovery factor of reservoirs beyond what can be achieved with primary and secondary methods. At TEXVEN, we design and implement EOR projects that not only increase reserves but can also align with sustainability goals, as in the case of CO2-EOR.
Methodology and Approach
Our process begins with a detailed screening of the reservoir to determine the most suitable EOR technique (thermal, chemical, or miscible/immiscible gas injection), followed by a pilot design and a field-scale implementation plan.
- Screening and Candidate Selection: Analysis of reservoir and fluid properties to identify fields with the greatest potential for the application of EOR techniques.
- Pilot Project Design: Planning and modeling of pilot tests to validate the effectiveness of the selected technique and optimize design parameters.
- Gas Injection (CO2-EOR): Design of projects that use CO2 to enhance recovery, which offers the dual benefit of increasing production and sequestering carbon.
- Thermal and Chemical Recovery: Design of steam or polymer injection projects for heavy oil reservoirs or with specific conditions that warrant it.
Applied Technology
We use reservoir simulation software enhanced by AI, capable of modeling the complex physical and chemical processes involved in EOR projects, which allows us to predict the reservoir's response and optimize the injection and production strategy.
