Project Abstract

Abstract
This research project focuses on investigating and comparing various enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques specifically targeted for mature oil fields. The declining production rates in mature oil fields have necessitated the implementation of advanced recovery methods to maximize oil extraction. The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of different EOR methods in enhancing oil recovery from mature oil fields, thereby extending the economic lifespan of these reservoirs. The research begins with an introduction providing the background of the study, highlighting the challenges faced in mature oil fields, and presenting the research problem statement. The objectives of the study are outlined to guide the research process, followed by a discussion on the limitations and scope of the study. The significance of the research is emphasized, emphasizing the potential benefits of implementing advanced EOR techniques in mature oil fields. The structure of the research is also presented, outlining the organization and flow of the study, along with the definition of key terms to ensure clarity and understanding. Chapter two of the research project comprises a comprehensive literature review that covers ten key aspects related to enhanced oil recovery techniques in mature oil fields. The review explores existing studies, theories, and practical applications of various EOR methods, providing a foundation for the subsequent research analysis. Chapter three details the research methodology, including the research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, and data analysis procedures. The chapter also addresses ethical considerations, potential biases, and limitations in the research methodology to ensure the validity and reliability of the study findings. Chapter four presents the findings of the research, analyzing and discussing the effectiveness of different EOR techniques in mature oil fields. The chapter highlights the comparative study results, identifying the advantages, limitations, and practical implications of each EOR method in enhancing oil recovery. Finally, chapter five concludes the research project with a summary of the key findings, a discussion of the implications for the oil industry, and recommendations for future research. The conclusion emphasizes the significance of implementing advanced EOR techniques in mature oil fields to optimize oil production and maximize reservoir recovery rates. In conclusion, this research project provides valuable insights into the application of enhanced oil recovery techniques in mature oil fields, offering a comparative analysis of different methods to guide industry practices and decision-making. The study contributes to the advancement of EOR technologies and strategies, ultimately benefiting the oil and gas sector in maximizing oil reserves and sustaining production levels in mature oil fields.
