Enhanced-Oil-Recovery-Secondary-and-Tertiary-Recovery-19479

Did you know that a lot of the oil in the ground is still present after primary recovery? In-the king's language meaning there's still a whole lot of oil left in a well even with 10 years of pumping. This lovely  [http://www.aihcp.org/aagc.htm grief counseling education]  paper has a few witty lessons for how to ponder it. The reason why oil production drops is that the pure drive that once sent oil aggressively towards the wellbore has subsided. Normally, the pure drive is either water or gas in the creation. In this article, we look to explain a few of the superior or secondary/tertiary ways of oil recovery. With oil hitting new highs every single day, it's clear the cost advantage of applying technology to get at creation is practical. When oil was within the $10-20 range, the small cost of some enhanced oil recovery methods didn't make economic sense. One of the most common secondary recovery methods is a waterflood. Essentially, a waterflood is really a re-introduction of water in-to the formation to make a drive to drive more oil towards the wellbore. To increase the efficiency of the waterflood, new methods use Alkaline-Surfactant-Polymer floods and some tourists are introducing microbes to the wellbore to increase the sweep efficiency of the flood, both methods have now been met with success. One technique I find very interesting and used with success on one oil well may be the radial jet development. The technology employs jets of high water pres-sure to cut laterally into the creation up to almost 300 feet. The technology can be seen at www.wellenhancementservices.com, ask for Steve Bowen if you are interested in utilizing the technology on a number of your or old wells. With 80-day of the gas still in the floor after primary recovery, there's still plenty of meat on the bone for utilizing EOR. New technologies are constantly being tested and can lead to greater gains in the future. One area I am very thinking about is new drilling technology. The rotary drilling rig hasn't changed substantially in 100 years but new developments are coming and we'll discuss these in future sites.The American Academy of Grief Counseling 2400 Niles-Cortland Rd SE Suite # 4 Warren Ohio 44484 Phone: 330-652-7776 Email: info@aihcp.org Site: www.aihcp.org
