Key Points

Optimizing CO2 injection in oil fields may significantly enhance oil recovery rates across Russian territories.
With about 150 active projects worldwide, CO2 technologies are lagging at a technology stage readiness level of 6-7 in Russia.
Addressing challenges such as unplanned CO2 breakthroughs and environmental emissions is crucial for project viability.
Establishing a united center for CO2 EOR and IOR technologies could streamline efforts, reducing costs and improving outcomes.

Abstract

Worldwide practice, for rational CO2 use, focuses on injection of this greenhouse gas for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and intensified oil recovery (IOR). In total, as per year 2024, over 150 active CO2 EOR gaseous carbon dioxide; enhanced oil recovery; carbon footprint; carbon dioxide in-situ generation; tax incentives.
