This intermediate-level course explores Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) techniques specifically tailored for low permeability unconventional reservoirs. Covering a decade of advancements, the focus is on the widely used huff-n-puff gas injection method, including how to forecast production and estimate injection volumes. The course also reviews continuous injection, water/surfactant injection, and thermal EOR techniques. Students will learn from real field trials across major North American basins with discussions on operational implementation practices. The course aims to equip reservoir engineers with practical tools and considerations to optimize unconventional reservoir recovery.Read more...
