Residual Oil Zone Type 3

Residual Oil Zone Type 3

What we’re doing here is we’re going to demonstrate the origin of the predominant type of residual oil zone in the Permian Basin. This is our source for the next generation of CO2 EOR production for oil. What we’ve got is a cross-section that we have adopted here in the Permian Basin. This would be […]

Residual Oil Zone Type 2

Residual Oil Zone Type 2

The oil and gas industry has learned in recent years that oil entrapments may have undergone some changes in their geologic past. It isn’t proper in many basins to think that the original stage of tectonics, which includes: burial, oil generation, and migration into a structurally high trap, might not have been altered by a […]

Residual Oil Zone Type 1

Residual Oil Zone Type 1

The oil and gas industry has come to recognize now that oil reservoirs and the sub-surface can undergo multiple stages of tectonics beyond the original one, which involves burial, oil generation in the original entrapment stage where oil moved into a structurally high trap in the sub-surface. Those multiple stages of tectonics can take one […]

THE OIL RECOVERY CASE HISTORY FROM THE RESIDUAL OIL ZONE  SEMINOLE FIELD, GAINES COUNTY, TX  The Hess Corporation has underway what many persons have begun to call the “Gold Standard” oil recovery project using carbon dioxide (CO2) flooding. Their project is located in the Permian Basin region of the Southwestern U.S. and began in 1983in […]

Recognition and Exploitation of Residual Oil Zones Coming of Age

Recognition and Exploitation of Residual Oil Zones Coming of Age

Studies sponsored by the Research Partnership to Secure Energy for America (RPSEA) and the U.S. Department of Energy (USDOE) have opened the door to a whole new set of opportunities for commercial development of residual oil zones (ROZs) throughout the world. The historical understanding of the zones beneath the oil/water contacts in reservoirs had been […]
