Project Abstract

Abstract
Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) techniques play a crucial role in maximizing oil production from mature oil fields. As oil reserves continue to deplete, the need for efficient and sustainable methods to extract remaining oil becomes increasingly vital. This research investigates various EOR techniques tailored specifically for mature oil fields, aiming to enhance oil recovery rates and prolong the economic lifespan of these fields. Chapter One provides an introduction to the research, discussing the background, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure, and definition of terms. The chapter sets the stage for exploring EOR techniques in mature oil fields. Chapter Two conducts a comprehensive literature review on EOR techniques, including water flooding, gas injection, chemical flooding, thermal methods, and emerging technologies. The chapter critically analyzes previous studies and identifies gaps in knowledge to guide the research. Chapter Three outlines the research methodology, detailing the research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, data analysis procedures, and ethical considerations. The chapter ensures a systematic and rigorous approach to investigating EOR techniques for mature oil fields. Chapter Four presents the findings of the research, including the application of different EOR techniques in mature oil fields, their effectiveness in enhancing oil recovery rates, and the challenges associated with their implementation. The chapter engages in a detailed discussion of the results, providing insights and recommendations for industry practitioners. Chapter Five offers the conclusion and summary of the research, highlighting key findings, implications for the oil industry, contributions to existing knowledge, and recommendations for future research. The chapter wraps up the study by emphasizing the importance of EOR techniques for maximizing oil recovery in mature oil fields. In conclusion, this research contributes to the field of petroleum engineering by exploring and evaluating various EOR techniques tailored for mature oil fields. By enhancing oil recovery rates and prolonging the economic viability of mature fields, these techniques offer sustainable solutions for meeting global energy demands. The findings and recommendations of this research can inform industry practices and guide future research endeavors in the field of EOR for mature oil fields.
