Feasibility study of heavy oil recovery in the Midcontinent region (Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma)

Abstract

B_Lsic vertical sequence of an individual Kansas Pennsylvanian cyclotherm, which is generally characteristic of Marmaton,Kansas City, Lansing, and Shawnee groups, showing lithology and interpreted environments and phases of deposition ..

High potential recovery -- Gas repressurization

“…Typical flue gas composition is about 85% N2 and 15% COP Carbon dioxide is much more soluble in water or oil than N2 A DOE-funded review of the state-of-the-art use of flue gas and nitrogen was published earlier (Anada 1980). Numerous inventors and small operators built upon the basics published in the review and successfully implemented oil production (Olsen and Johnson 1993).…”
