Project Abstract

Abstract
Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) techniques play a crucial role in the petroleum industry by increasing the extraction efficiency of oil reservoirs and extending the productive life of wells. This research project focuses on exploring various EOR methods to achieve sustainable oil production. The study begins with an in-depth examination of the background and significance of EOR techniques in the petroleum industry. The problem statement addresses the challenges faced in conventional oil recovery methods and the need for implementing advanced EOR techniques. The objectives of the study include evaluating the effectiveness of different EOR methods, identifying key factors influencing their success, and proposing strategies for sustainable oil production. The literature review in this research project encompasses an extensive analysis of existing studies, research papers, and industry reports on EOR techniques. Ten key areas are examined, including steam injection, gas injection, chemical flooding, and microbial EOR, among others. The review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the principles, applications, and challenges associated with each EOR method. By synthesizing this information, the study aims to identify best practices and innovative approaches for enhancing oil recovery efficiency. The research methodology section outlines the approach adopted to achieve the project objectives. It includes eight key components such as data collection methods, experimental procedures, simulation techniques, and analytical tools utilized in the study. The methodology incorporates both theoretical analysis and practical experimentation to validate the effectiveness of different EOR techniques in real-world scenarios. By employing a systematic research design, the study aims to generate reliable data and insights that can guide decision-making in the petroleum industry. The discussion of findings in this research project presents a detailed analysis of the results obtained from the experimental and analytical investigations. Seven critical aspects are examined, including the comparative performance of different EOR methods, the impact of reservoir characteristics on recovery efficiency, and the economic feasibility of implementing EOR techniques. The findings highlight the potential benefits of adopting sustainable EOR practices, such as increased oil production rates, reduced environmental impact, and enhanced economic viability. In conclusion, this research project emphasizes the significance of implementing advanced EOR techniques for sustainable oil production. The study demonstrates that by leveraging innovative approaches and best practices in EOR, the petroleum industry can overcome existing challenges and achieve long-term productivity gains. The summary of the research findings underscores the key insights, recommendations, and implications derived from the study, paving the way for further research and practical applications in the field of enhanced oil recovery.
