'Carbon dioxide enhanced oil recovery market to be worth $4.2bn in 2012' says Visiongain report

Oct. 2, 2012 - PRLog -- High oil prices are helping companies using carbon dioxide for enhanced oil recovery pay more for CO2. This is providing an increasing amount of opportunities for facilities producing carbon as a by-product to monetise their waste. This provides both an option to increase production of oil from maturing fields, while sequestering the undesirable CO2 in safe underground structures.

The lead analyst of the carbon dioxide enhanced oil recovery report commented that “The US has long been the focal point for CO2 EOR operations with its considerable supply of naturally occurring CO2 and maturing onshore oil basins. However, as anthropogenic sources of CO2 are increasingly being combined with EOR projects, other parts of the world and particularly nations with advanced carbon capture technology, are seeing considerable developments’’.
