Residual oil zones (ROZ) undergoing CO 2 Enhanced Oil Recovery (CO 2-EOR) may
benefit from specific strategies to maximize their value. We evaluated several strategies for …

Residual oil zones (ROZs) are increasingly being commercially exploited using CO 2-
enhanced oil recovery (CO 2-EOR) method. In this study, CO 2 storage potential, long-term …

The petroleum industry, through the production and consumption of oil and gas, contributes
to global greenhouse gas emissions. However, the industry's leadership and experience in …

Residual oil zones (ROZs) are defined as those zones where oil is swept over geologic time
period (natural flush) and exists at residual saturation. ROZs are increasingly being …

The residual oil zone (ROZ) with near-residual oil saturation is a naturally water-flooded
interval adjacent to an oil-bearing reservoir. It has become a promising development target …

This study focuses on CO2 EOR operations and CO2 geologic storage in saline-bearing
formations; both individually and in relation to each other. This study is the third of three that …

Reliable, affordable, and technically recoverable energy is central to the nation's economic
and social vitality. The United States is both a major consumer of geologically based energy …

Abstract The San Andres formation in the Permian Basin has been productive for nearly 100
years and continues to be one of the key oil producing formations in West Texas and …

Abstract The San Andres Horizontal (SAHz) Play in west Texas and eastern New Mexico is a
challenging area for petrophysical evaluation due to the complexity of the formation, the …

A new type of buoyancy model can be used to understand the source of residual oil zones
(ROZs), both thick and thin, and help determine the likelihood that economically viable …
