  • Computer-implemented systems and methods for screening and predicting the performance of enhanced oil recovery and improved oil recovery methods
    Patent number: 8175751
    Abstract: Computer-implemented systems and methods are provided for screening among various EOR process for application to a reservoir. Also provided are computer-implemented systems and methods for screening the feasibility of a waterflood process for application in a reservoir and for recommending a waterflood injection scheme to be applied. In addition, computer-implemented systems and methods for predicting the performance of a waterflood process in a reservoir are provided. Computer-implemented systems and methods for predicting the performance of a polymer flood technique in a reservoir also are provided. The performance of the polymer flood process may be compared to the performance of a waterflood process.
