Project Abstract

Abstract
Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) techniques play a crucial role in maximizing oil production from mature oil fields. This comparative study aims to evaluate and compare various EOR methods to determine their effectiveness in enhancing oil recovery rates in mature oil fields. The research focuses on analyzing the performance of primary, secondary, and tertiary recovery methods, including water flooding, gas injection, chemical flooding, and thermal methods. The study begins with a comprehensive literature review that examines previous research on EOR techniques in mature oil fields. It highlights the challenges associated with declining oil production rates and the importance of implementing effective EOR strategies to optimize oil recovery. The literature review also explores the mechanisms and benefits of different EOR techniques, providing a foundation for the comparative analysis. The research methodology section outlines the approach taken to compare and evaluate the different EOR techniques. The study utilizes field data, simulation models, and case studies to assess the performance of each EOR method in mature oil fields. The methodology includes data collection, analysis, and interpretation to draw meaningful conclusions about the effectiveness of the various EOR techniques. The findings from the comparative analysis provide valuable insights into the performance of different EOR methods in mature oil fields. The study identifies key factors that influence the success of EOR projects, such as reservoir characteristics, fluid properties, and operational parameters. By comparing the results of each EOR technique, the research highlights the most effective strategies for enhancing oil recovery rates in mature oil fields. The discussion section delves into the implications of the research findings and explores the practical applications of the study results. It addresses the challenges and opportunities in implementing EOR techniques in mature oil fields, considering economic, environmental, and technical factors. The discussion also offers recommendations for optimizing EOR projects and overcoming potential barriers to successful implementation. In conclusion, this comparative study provides a comprehensive analysis of EOR techniques for mature oil fields, offering valuable insights for oil industry professionals, researchers, and policymakers. The research contributes to the ongoing efforts to maximize oil recovery rates and extend the productive life of mature oil fields. By evaluating the effectiveness of different EOR methods, this study aims to facilitate informed decision-making and improve the efficiency of oil production operations in mature oil fields.
