Project Abstract

Abstract
Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) techniques play a crucial role in the petroleum industry, especially in mature oilfields where conventional extraction methods have reached their limits. This research project investigates the application of various EOR techniques in a case study of a mature oilfield to maximize oil production and extend the economic life of the field. The study aims to analyze the effectiveness of different EOR methods and their impact on oil recovery rates, production costs, and environmental considerations.
